Description
A Cruel Fate by Lindsey Davis is based on real events in the English Civil War. In 1648, prisoners were subjected to inhumane treatment in Oxford Castle, including torture, starvation and physical abuse. The story follows two individuals, Martin Watts and Jane Afton's brother Nat, who are captured by Royalists and held prisoner. Their suffering at the hands of their jailor, William Smith, is a grim reminder of the abuse of power during this period. Lindsey Davis retells the tale of Captain Smith's cruelty, highlighting the harsh realities faced by those imprisoned in Oxford Castle during the English Civil War.
