'Twisting In' is a fictional story of four Nottinghamshire miners caught up in the Derbyshire Pentrich, armed uprising of 1817. It was a time of great poverty in England after the Napoleonic Wars and thousands of families were working all hours and yet could not afford the price of a loaf of bread. They were being cast out of their homes by a harsh, uncaring Regency Government who refused to listen to their pleas.This is a tale of Luddite wrecking, of betrayal and imprisonment. The true facts of the Pentrich Martyrs are included in an appendix and may whet your appetite for the Pentrich & South Wingfield Revolution Group's Remembrance Bicentenary in 2017. The three leaders of the revolt were publicly hanged and beheaded at Derby Gaol and 14 convicted men were deported to Australia. Their descendants are joining in the 2017 Remembrances and it is planned to be a world event. There are other short stories of murder, mystery and imagination in this book, some with a touch of the ghostly paranormal, and the author hopes they will interest, entertain and amuse you, and leave you wanting a little more.
