The title of a novel?

I'm I'm trying to remember the title of a novel about politics and cryptography in 17th century Restoration England I read several years ago. I know it had the word "Pear" in its title. One of its premises was that Charles II had converted to Roman Catholicism secretly shortly before his death. Anybody help me?
