Burning Castle

This is a novel set in 1376 in England, a few years before the Peasant’s Revolt of 1381. England is ruled by a fading king, while sinister forces are jockeying for positions of power. Meanwhile an eccentric Oxford academic and his servant travel to St Brett’s to investigate a spate of demonic possessions.

I am currently finalizing my research on this novel and writing detailed profiles for each of the major characters. I will update these pages as more background for the story is developed.
