Swashbuckling adventure by the author of GENTLEMAN OF FORTUNE and ONE SMALL CANDLE. "The author is to be commended, not only for the accuracy, but for the passion it infuses in its readers." "For the King is another very engaging read. Poignant, heart-breaking, triumphant. A very fine book." A civil war. A town under siege. The forbidden love of a beautiful woman. FOR THE KING is based on the true story of the 1643 siege of King's Lynn. The English Civil War put Englishman against Englishman, Anglican against Puritan, Royalist against Parliament. With East Anglia firmly under the control of Parliament, one town declares for the King, bringing war to Norfolk. Can King's Lynn's governor Sir Hamon L'Estrange hold off Oliver Cromwell long enough for relief to come? While Sir Hamon risks all, son Roger fights for the King and for the love of beautiful Puritan Ruth Pell, bringing him into conflict with his family. Can they overcome their different loyalties? Can their love survive the siege? A swashbuckling epic, FOR THE KING will transport you back to 17th century Norfolk at a time of crisis.
