The Reckoning
Author(s): Charles Nicholl
In 1593 the controversial young playwright Christopher Marlowe was stabbed to death in a Deptford lodging-house. The circumstances were shady, and the official account - a violent quarrel over a bill - has long been questioned. This is a story of the Elizabethan underworld.
