'Going from the Victorian period to the Tudors is not as difficult for me as one might expect, especially from those that only know of my work within the Jack the Ripper case. It is true that I started researching the Jack the Ripper case when I was eight years old, howevet a few years before that I was running around Hever Castle, with my Alice Band on my head (pretending it was a hood) and saying to a member of staff there that 'No I wasn't Anne Boleyn, I was Mary Boleyn'. I have never forgotten the look on that staff member's face, I don't think she was expecting that answer!' 'I always knew I would write of Hever Castle in some way, I just didn't know when. The moment came when I decided to do a university refresher course on the subject of the Tudors and it all came flooding back!' - Amanda Harvey Purse on going from writing about the Victorian era to the Tudors.

Dead Bodies Do Tell Tales - A Jack the Ripper Novel, a gothic haunting tale that is set at the time of Jack the Ripper and ten years later dealing with Victorian beliefs while asking the reader, if you had the power to change history, would you do it no matter what is means?
