This is a novel that explains my idea as a historian of the seventeenth-century period just how a successful Gunpowder Plot attacking the Houses of Parliament changed English history completely. It explains how English history was completely altered when the King James I was killed as he came to reopen parliament on November 5, 1605, and how the death of the king and the partial destruction of parliament led to increasing confusion throughout England and a partial uprising of Catholics in the country. This book describes the increasing uprising that grew throughout England as parliament got out of control once more with extremely detailed accuracy as to just how England was early on in the seventeenth century, as well as bringing an important and thoroughly philosophical character named Captain Pouch to life to organize and control the devastating protests as well as through his own negotiating skills, working out ways to bring the complete uprising in England under control to everyone’s satisfaction.
