2010 Release: The Heretic's Wife by Brenda Rickman Vantrease




by Brenda Rickman Vantrease

Release Date: April 13, 2010

SYNOPSIS: Tudor England is a perilous place for booksellers Kate Gough and her brother John, who sell forbidden translations of the Bible. Caught between warring factions—English Catholics opposed to the Lutheran reformation, and Henry VIII’s growing impatience with the Pope’s refusal to sanction his marriage to Anne Boleyn—Kate embarks on a daring adventure that will lead her into a dangerous marriage and a web of intrigue that pits her against powerful enemies. From the king’s lavish banquet halls to secret dungeons and the inner sanctums of Thomas More, Brenda Rickman Vantrease’s glorious new novel illuminates the public pageantry and the private passions of men and women of conscience in treacherous times.

Pre-order at PTTP's Amazon Store.

  1. I've been dieing for this one to come out! I loved her first two books about publications of the translated Bible.

  4. She is an amazing author! I really enjoyed The Illuminator, and I have The Mercy Seller on my TBR shelf. This one will be added to my collection as soon as I can get my hands on it! :)

  6. This sounds like it will be an interesting read. Since that time period with Henry VII was so back and forth with what Church to follow, it should help make the plot all the more intriguing!

  8. I have owned this author's first book for years. Still haven't read it, and every time I look at my bookshelves I think that I should rectify that, but it hasn't happened yet!

  9. Marg, yes, you should read THE ILLUMINATOR immediately! It's hard to believe it's a debut novel, it's that good. I can hardly wait for this book to come out.
