Rebels and Traitors by British historical novelist Lindsey Davis (best known for her Marcus Didius Falco series) was published by Random House in September 2009 (ISBN 9781846056321). In contrast to the ancient Roman setting of the Falco books and Course of Honour, this book is set in the English Civil War period of the 17th century.[1] At 742 pages it is substantially longer than her previous novels.
The prologue takes place on 30 January 1649 at the execution of King Charles I at the Palace of Whitehall, London. The main body of the book then begins in 1634, and the endpaper blurb describes the book as being set in Birmingham, where the author was born, Oxford, where she studied, and London, where she now lives.
Davis has said that her interest in this period goes back to when a print of the Laughing Cavalier by Frans Hals hung in her primary school classroom, and was further developed when she read Rosemary Sutcliff's novels Simon and The Rider of the White Horse.[2]
