Eyam Church |
This story is set partly in modern day England but also in
1665 in a rural village in Derbyshire which eventually became known as the
PLAGUE village. My tale is fictional but the events and the settings are real
and well documented. The story of Eyam – plague village - is threaded through
my supernatural-type tale but the bravery of the real villagers in quarantining
themselves voluntarily over a number of months, has long been recognised as
perhaps, the greatest heroic story of its time. Over a period of months the village was
decimated by the disease with whole families wiped out but as a result of their
sacrifice the surrounding hamlets and the Duke of Devonshire’s Estate (Chatsworth)
was saved from infection.
Set against this background “The Afterlife of Darkmares” is
the story of one woman’s battle against an evil entity which threatens not only
her child but ultimately all mankind.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much Georgina. I do hope you enjoy it? Thanks for commenting.
ReplyDeleteAs you say, the self-quarantining of the entire village is a well documented and very moving event in history. What a great backdrop to weave a tale around. Good luck with the book.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for your comment Rosalind
