A Hero in the Strife: A Tale in the Seventeenth Century by Louisa Silke

The coronation parade of King Charles II was filled with excitement. But soon after, Puritan life was jeopardized when a series of laws were passed that restricted and even criminalized preaching and worship. Danger and romance are woven together as Dr. Willoughby must choose between keeping his well appointed preaching position or following his conscience. In this work of historical fiction, secret passageways, a devastating plague, and examples of upholding Christian values will help transport the reader to this rich period of history.
