By Any Other Name by ERIN COTTER. When the mentor of Will, a down-on-his-luck actor who's trying to lay low, is murdered, all hell breaks loose. This is because that mentor is the famous playwright Christopher Marlowe, and he was actually a spy for the queen, tasked with stalking an assassin that is after the queen. His secrets and untimely death have put Will under a harsh spotlight, until he unwittingly foils an attempt on the queen’s life, and she names him her next spymaster. Now, Will must team up with the entitled and unfairly handsome Lord James Bloomsbury, who gets under his skin immediately. Together, the two hunt the cunning assassin, defend the queen’s life, and pray to keep their own... all while an unexpected connection blossoms between them.

Sam reaches out to befriend her old classmate, but when Kiri starts to confide in her, Sam realizes there’s more to the story than she had imagined.
