In July 1553, 16-year-old Lady Jane Grey became
de facto Queen of England and Ireland for just nine days. In a new novel
Before the Reign Falls, a group of friends renovating an old barn chance upon a stash of manuscripts that reveal clues to a mystery going back more than four centuries. In this edition of Historical Fiction, Alice Loxton talks to author David Black about his story of mystery, intrigue, politics and love.
