FOLLOWING the execution of James Stanley, the seventh Earl of Derby, his secretary Paul Morrow is on the run, seeking to escape the Roundheads and a guilty conscience over his master’s death.
During his reflections he retraces some of the major events of the Civil War while also trying to fathom the true circumstances surrounding the execution. This fresh look at one of the most tumultuous periods in English history by Darlington author Sanderson has excitement, authenticity and not a little style.
