Review

In sixteenth century England, fear of witchcraft abounds. But witches are not the only source of evil, as Dr William Gilbert will discover...

When Essex is hit by a snowstorm, a strange family save Dr William Gilbert’s life. The husband, wife and daughter nurse him back to health in the Old Priory, their eerie home on the outskirts of town.

Once recovered, William is relieved to leave, and yet grateful to the family that saved him on that deadly night. So, he feels compelled to help the women when they face accusations of witchcraft and seem certain to be executed – despite the solemn warning issues by his own father.

The latest instalment of the popular Dr William Gilbert series is an engrossing murder-mystery that promises to thrill both avid fans of Leonard Tourney’s writing and readers of meticulously crafted historical fiction.

In recent years, Easypress has had the pleasure of working on several of Leonard Tourney’s The Doctor William Gilbert Mysteries alongside Lume Books, such as: The Cuckold's Bride and Solomon's Gold. When using our publishing platform Atomik ePublisher, the production team were able to reference other titles in the series to get a sense of the style of previous narratives to replicate in The Kindness of Witches.

Assisted styling software Atomik eStylist was vital when formatting to ensure a consistent style was kept throughout The Doctor William Gilbert Mysteries to maximise readability for both print and digital platforms.

The Easypress production team look forward to working on many more of Leonard Tourney’s Elizabethan murder mysteries in the future!
