Austria-Hungary, 1913. In the castle of a frontier town, the worldly, corrupt Count-Governor Wiladowski watches while a wave of assassinations sweeps the Empire. When one of his family is murdered the Count gives broad police powers to his spymaster, Jacob Tausk. In the wake of new terrorist attacks, a mysterious preacher appears - trailing a band of fanatical disciples. Soon Tausk finds himself serving two masters: the Count and the richest man in the province, Moritz Rotenburg, whose only son is burning for revolution. Compelling and brilliantly imagined, Conspirators evokes the venerable Habsburg empire on the edge of collapse and conjures the political and apocalyptic passions of the age.

SYNOPSIS: "Galicia, Austria-Hungary, 1913. In the castle of a frontier town, on the border between Europe and the East, the worldly, corrupt Count-Governor Wiladowski watches helplessly while a wave of assassinations sweeps the Empire. When a member of his family is murdered the Count gives broad police powers to his spymaster, Jacob Tausk, a brilliant young Jew whose ruthless war on terror extends into every corner of the province and beyond, enlisting union organisers, financiers, aristocrats and their servants and a young novelist and playwright newly arrived in the Vienna of Franz Joseph and Freud, hungry for literary success. In the wake of new terrorist attacks, a mysterious preacher appears in the provincial capital - one of the so-called wonder rabbis from the shtetls of the East - trailing a band of fanatical disciples who proclaim him the Messiah. Word of the charismatic leader spreads quickly from the Jewish quarter to the castle itself and soon Tausk finds himself serving two masters: the Count and the richest man in the province, Moritz Rotenburg, who has a private interest in the wonder rabbi."
