This enthralling novel takes its title from the restoration of the British monarchy in 1660. Charles II’s proclamation, designed to bring peace, pardoned anti-royalists with exceptions, notably the 59 men who had signed Charles I’s death warrant. If seized, the men were to be hanged, drawn and quartered. Ned Whalley and William Goffe, both historical figures, are pursued from England to America by a fictional nemesis. Tim McInnerny delivers a masterly narration, finely tuned to the personality and convictions of each character. (HarperAudio, Unabridged, 15¾ hours)
