I have recently completed an historical novel set during the time of the English Civil War. The hero, twelve-year-old Jester Marvel, was discovered in a basket floating in the river by Granny Marvel when he was a tiny baby. As the King’s Cavaliers and Oliver Cromwell’s Roundheads battle for control of the local castle, Jester must hide his granny’s stock of illegal tobacco, protect his fugitive friend Ned from capture,avoid a pesky girl called Hetty Skinner, and accommodate the wishes of young Prince Charles, all through trickery, deception and masquerade.
