About this listen

October, 1650 - Traumatised Parliamentarian spy James Archer returns north seeking his sister Meg, missing in the aftermath of Newcastle’s recent witch trials. Aloof, enigmatic Elizabeth Thompson draws him to investigate the ongoing killing of women who had worked to free the accused. But when Elizabeth herself becomes hunted, the only chance of escape lies in Archer setting himself as bait. Set against the backdrop of the greed and brutality of Interregnum England, The Wicked of the Earth is an historical thriller perfect for readers of Andrew Taylor, S J Parris, or C J Sansom.

I really was enjoying the story but the narrator and his Newcastle accents were doing my head in. I’ll get the text version from the library.

An incredible read, it's so refreshing to immerse yourself in the living history of Archer's Newcastle. A novel full of intrigue, dastardly villains, and the resilience of women against unsurmountable odds. Cliff Chapman's narration is first rate, and I can't wait for the next chapter in this sensational series.
