Geoff Quaife’s “The Dark Corners” presents dark scenarios of uprisings against Cromwell’s government

Geoff Quaife’s The Dark Corners: Malice And Fanaticism is a continuation of the adventures of top English agent Luke Tremayne.

Oliver Cromwell’s top agent, Luke Tremayne, is sent into Wales to assess the level of antigovernment activity and to solve the murder of a local magistrate. This is as Cromwell’s government faces conspiracies and uprisings from royalists, republicans, Catholics, religious extremists, and senior army officers.

Several more murders follow, and in solving them, Luke confronts devious Welsh gentry, seductive women, a band of highwaymen, smugglers, an evil witch, and a major insurrection against the government.
