The first book in David Hough's Historical Adventures in Cornwall series has been published. The Vanson Curse tells the story of Kit Vanson who is sickened by the way his father and brothers abuse the slaves on their Alabama cotton plantation. He flees back to his late grandfather’s sleepy Cornish farm. He hopes to find peace of mind, but is caught up in turbulent events as he tries to atone for his family sins by helping his neighbour against a merciless vendetta.
The novel has been reviewed as "a dark, well written, fast moving, modern novel of the 19th century Cornwall". The Historical Novel Society recommends it as "a good read for people who want to know more about 1830s England".
The book is now available on Amazon.
