Description

The Burning of Mary Channing by Haines Gritton is a historical fiction account of a notorious trial in 18th-century England. In January 1704, just one year after her forced marriage, Mary Brookes was put on trial for the murder of her husband, Thomas Channing.

This gripping narrative draws on the available facts from the time to explore the events leading up to Mary's trial and her eventual execution at the age of 16. Gritton's fictionalised account raises questions about the circumstances surrounding Mary's life and death, leaving readers to ponder the truth behind this tragic story.

With meticulous research and attention to historical detail, The Burning of Mary Channing offers a compelling and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in true crime and historical fiction.
