London is under siege by the Black Plague, closing its theaters and losing its frightened citizens to the countryside. Lord Westfield’s Men decide upon the relative safety of the road and a tour of the North. Before they can pack up and depart, one player in the troupe is murdered.
As they travel, the company of players managed by its bookholder, Nicholas Bracewell, learns that their arch-rivals, Banbury’s Men, have been pirating their best works. Hoping to shake off Banbury’s Men, actor Lawrence Firethorn eventually leads his troupe to York where all is revealed in a thrilling performance.
Originally published in the U.S. in 1990 by St. Martin’s Press, The Trip to Jerusalem is the third Nicholas Bracewell Elizabethan mystery following The Queen’s Head and The Merry Devils. The most recent Bracewell from St. Martin’s Press is The Wanton Angel (0-312-24116-X)
