Book two in the Glorious trilogy, covers the middle five days of a fortnight in December 1688 in London during 'The Glorious Revolution of 1688' when King James II of England fled to France, and William of Orange arrived in the capital. This blend of beakthrough historical research and romantic fiction develops several known but underreported factual aspects of those chaotic days, for which sources are provided in an extensive Afterword. The mob elected itself three colonels just weeks before. The royal cannon train returned to London at the height of the rioting. And the King was using laudanum to some degree. Particular attention is paid to previously unpublished historical evidence. A redrafted minute book triggers King James' relapse after his jubilant return to London on 16th December. The outcome rests on coincidence and the pitiless tides. And yet - unlikely love thrives on chaos. Glorious it was not.
