Following the beheading of his father Charles I in January 1649, the nineteen-year old Prince of Wales vowed to seek vengeance. From exile, he instigated what became the biggest manhunt the nation had ever seen, spreading far and wide and lasting for over thirty years. With show trials and assassination squads scouring foreign countries, he searched for men such as John Milton, poetic genius and political propagandist, and Oliver Cromwell´s steely son-in-law, Henry Ireton.
Set in an age of intrigue and espionage, The King’s Revenge brings these remarkable figures vividly to life in an engrossing tale of double agents, ambition and betrayal.
