Plot — Leon Edgar

It is November 1605, a day still celebrated in the British Isles as the anniversary of the day that Guy Fawkes tried to blow up King and Parliament in London. Jack Bosvile, the youngest member of the gang, escapes by the skin of his teeth and is pursued by both the King's Militia and the backers of the Plot, who believe him to be the traitor who gave them away. He flees to Essex and then to the South of France to find peace. Accompanied by the beautiful Sarah, he tries to escape capture but is eventually caught. This is the first of the PLOT saga and covers the period 1605 to 1615. The sequel, Plot to War, follows and covers the life of Jack's daughter until 1649.
