The school of night : a novel

Bayard, Louis. (Author).

Summary: In the late sixteenth century, five brilliant scholars gather under the cloak of darkness to discuss God, politics, astronomy, and the black arts. Known as the School of Night, they met in secret to avoid the wrath of Queen Elizabeth. In modern day Washington, D.C., disgraced Elizabethan scholar Henry Cavendish has been hired by a ruthless antiquities collector to find a missing letter. But the letter is an object of interest to others, too. It may be the clue to a hidden treasure, but it most certainly will prove the existence of the group of men whom Shakespeare dubbed the School of Night but about whom little is known.
