The Bedlam Series: Historical Fiction Trilogy

A Tudor Historical Drama

Step into the shadowed heart of Tudor England, where faith and madness walk hand in hand, and loyalty is tested against betrayal.

 

In The Case of Lord Simon, the first novel of the Bedlam Series, Lord Simon Stanley—a duke’s disgraced son haunted by his sister’s tragic fate—is cast into London’s infamous Bedlam Asylum. There, amid cruelty and chaos, he collides with Winnie Wryght, a woman guarding her own dangerous secrets while caring for her brilliant but afflicted brother. Bound together by circumstance, Simon and Winnie must navigate a world where salvation is fragile, treachery thrives at court, and love risks everything.

 

From the dank cells of Bedlam to the glittering but perilous halls of Queen Mary Tudor’s court, the series follows Simon, Winnie, and their steadfast allies as they confront corruption, forbidden faith, and the price of redemption. Rich in historical detail and psychological depth, The Bedlam Series is a story of fractured legacies, enduring loyalty, and the thin line between ruin and salvation.
