A married couple are caught up in a plot to overthrow Henry VIII in this romantic adventure classic by the author of King Solomon’s Mines. Cicely Foterell has loved her new husband, Sir Christopher Harflete, since childhood. But they live in an England in turmoil. It’s 1536, and King Henry VIII has rebelled against Pope Clement VII and the Catholic Church. Consequently, many of the clergy are rebelling against the king in a revolt coined the Pilgrimage of Grace. To raise funds to fight against Henry, Spanish abbot Clement Maldon plots to kill Cicely’s father and steal the family’s jewels, along with Blossholme Abbey. Cicely is sent to a nunnery and later tried as a witch. Christopher is knocked out and shipped overseas. As they try to reunite, many more dangers arise, and it will take more than their undying love to ensure they ever find each other . . . Praise for The Lady of Blossholme “What a detailed, densely written, fast-moving and action-packed story it is. . . ! The Lady of Blossholme is well worth a reader’s time. With memorable characters, a unique setting, a different kind of Haggardian villain, several interesting Haggardian sidekicks, and a healthy dose of red-blooded action, the novel is a real pleaser.” —Fantasy Literature

Sir Henry Rider Haggard was an English writer of adventure novels set mostly in Africa, and a founder of the Lost World literary genre. The Lady of Blossholme is a tale of adventure set in the time of King Henry VIII. This was the period when King Henry was rebelling against Pope Clement VII, and when many Englishmen in the north, and many clergymen, were rebelling against Henry, in the so-called Pilgrimage of Grace. To raise needed funds for this rebellion against the king, the Spanish abbot Clement Maldon murders Cicely Foterell’s father and tries to claim all the family’s lands and jewels. And Dr. Therne is a confessional story from a mad scientist obsessed with one of the great issues of his day – vaccination against epidemic diseases like smallpox. His personal fears meet the tragic legacy of other doctors' careless ignorance and spawn a malignant crusade against vaccination.
