Title: The trade secret
Description: In Isfahan, Persia, 1599, young servant Nat Bramble loses his master Sir Anthony Sherley's silver in rogue trading. Nat and lovelorn poet Darius Nouredini strike out for secret oil wells said to lie under the abandoned Temple of Mithras. Their venture lights a trail of fire which follows Nat all the way back to England, where he is caught in the crossfire between the new King James, the Levant Company and ruined pirate Sir Thomas Sherley, Anthony's brother. A swashbuckling, rollicking story of espionage, love and adventure, this beautifully written novel will dazzle and delight readers as we follow Nat Bramble to the ends of the earth and back again.
