The Man in the Yellow Doublet
Arturo Perez-Reverte
This is the 2009 English translation of El Caballero del jubon amarillo 2003
Diego Alatriste and his page / trainee Inigo just cant stay out of trouble.
Alatriste is having an affair with a famous actress but unfortunately the King of Spain is also interested in the lady. Accused of a murder which turns out to be an actor hired to be adouble for the King Alatriste must clear his name and end a plot against the King.
Swashbuckling action and yet deep tragic irony set in 17th Spain as an Empire fades.
Highly recommended **********
