Used. Hardcover. Robert Harris trades the sleek corridors of modern power for the muddy swamps of seventeenth-century New England in this cracking historical thriller about regicide and relentless pursuit. When the English monarchy returns with a vengeance in 1660, two men who signed the death warrant of Charles I suddenly find themselves heading the most wanted list in the British Empire. Back in London, a dogged zealot named Richard Nayler is tasked with hunting them down across an untamed Atlantic frontier. It is a cat-and-mouse chase across continents that brilliantly balances political paranoia with old-fashioned frontier grit. If you like your history meticulously researched and your suspense running higher than a royalist's blood pressure, this one is an absolute must-read.
