Cursed Wife
by Pamela Hartshorne
Secrets and lies in
Elizabethan London
As
a small girl, Mary was cursed for causing the death of a vagrant child, a curse
that predicts that one day she will hang. But now she is sure the curse has been broken.
She has tried so hard to be good, and has been rewarded with a happy marriage
to a wealthy merchant, living a charmed life in Elizabethan London.
But
one rainy day in Cheapside, her past catches up with her in the shape of Cat,
once her mistress and now to be her maid.

in Elizabethan London.
Pamela Hartshorne
After a haphazard
career working and travelling around the world, Pamela first stumbled into
writing as a way to fund a Ph.D. in Medieval Studies at the University of York.
Twenty years, 60 romances and one Ph.D. later, she stepped out of her comfort
zone and began writing 'time slip' novels that drew on her research into the
Elizabethan street and her fascination with the relationship between the past
and the present.
Time’s Echo, published by Pan Macmillan in 2012, was her first mainstream novel. It was followed by The Memory of Midnight, published in 2013, The Edge of Dark in 2014 and House of Shadows in 2016. Her next novel, The Cursed Wife, a psychological thriller set in Elizabethan London, is released on 8 March 2018.
Pamela lives in York and in addition to writing fiction, she is also a project editor and a writer of non-fiction, most recently a history of Windsor Castle.
