OverviewIn The King's Inquisitor, book two of the Stuart Monarch series, the queen of Scotland is dead. Her almoner's son, William Broune, has fulfilled his father's wish that he should serve the king, James VI, at court. William finds himself caught between loyalty to the king or loyalty to his conscience. As William is forced to serve as the king's inquisitor in the North Berwick witch trials, he must make a decision. Will he do what the king asks, and earn the wife, title, and prestige he has always desired, or will he let a bold Scottish lass influence him to follow his heart and do the right thing? If William doesn't make the right choice, he may be among the accused.

Table of ContentsReviewsThe King's Inquisitor has everything a reader of historical fiction could wish for: a strong and intelligent woman; a man who is fair-minded and curious enough to challenge the barbaric notions of witchcraft that his monarch and country hold, and a fascinating glimpse into 16th century Scotland. This is a must-read for lovers of history and characters who forge their own paths through the injustices and bigotries of their times. Suzanne M. Wolfe, author of A Murder by Any Name, and The Course of All Treasons. Beautifully written and meticulously researched, The King's Inquisitor provides powerful insight into one of Scotland's most shameful periods of history. Ailish Sinclair, author of The Mermaid and the Bear Fireflies and Chocolate Sensuous. Evocative. And historically authentic. Heather E.F. Carter, author of The Black Unicorn The Kings Inquisitor brings to life the perverse and dangerous world of the Scottish witch trials of 1591, when even well-intentioned persons needed to tread carefully and mind their tongues. The darkness of this story is leavened by the characters of Ailsa Blackburn and William Broune with their innate decency, charm, and light humor in their interactions. Tense, gripping, and, as the story progresses, a real page turner. Catherine Merrick, author of The Bridled Tongue Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
