The King's Inquisitor - Tuesday MeetUp 22.10.04

RVW MEETUP Tuesday 4 October 2022
6.00p Portsmouth Public Library
Lower Level Meeting Room

Having had great topics and informative sessions, not the least of which was last months review of the 2022 Writers Market, that outlines all a writer needs to know about how to market their books in its' amazing 100th Edition.

In June we hosted Tonya Ulynn Brown to hear her path to making The Queen's Almoner, a British and Irish Historical Fiction and we are privileged to have her back again to discuss her latest release, The King's Inquisitor, a book she told us about in the June meetup and now will share her research and writing journey on this newest edition of Historical Fiction work.

BOOK . . . The queen of Scotland is dead. Her almoner’s son, William Broune, has fulfilled his father’s wish that he should serve the king, James VI, at court. William finds himself caught between loyalty to the king or loyalty to his conscience. As William is forced to serve as the king’s inquisitor in the North Berwick witch trials, he must make a decision. Will he do what the king asks, and earn the wife, title, and prestige he has always desired, or will he let a bold Scottish lass influence him to follow his heart and do the right thing?

If William doesn’t make the right choice, he may be among the accused.

CREDITS . . . The King’s Inquisitor was the Bronze Medal winner for the Coffee Pot Book Club’s 2022 Book of the Year in the Tudor, Stuart, and English Commonwealth Historical Fiction category. It is Tonya’s second book in her stand-alone Stuart Monarch Series.
