January 30th 1649. England is not a country that wishes to execute its divinely-appointed king. Yet Charles 1 finds himself shivering on a scaffold in Whitehall, with the axe man by his side …
In this brilliantly atmospheric novel, Simon Parke explores one of the most gripping tales in English history. He weaves together the four coinciding stories of Charles, including his extraordinary year-long imprisonment on the Isle of Wight … Robert Hammond, the poor man who found himself the king’s gaoler … Charles’ remarkable mistress (written out of the records), the super-spy Jane Whorwood … and of course, the brilliant and depressed Oliver Cromwell, who is working through his own demons of religion, politics, love and death.
