  The Pendle Witches England 1600's 
  Book 5 of 7  Alice Nutter The Silent Lady of Roughlee 
  The books are fictionally based on the true names and part facts of seven of the accused witches involved being sentenced to death mostly, although innocent, and is as follows: 
  Alice Nutter, the dignified Catholic widow of Roughlee Hall, became an unlikely victim of the 1612 Pendle witch trials. Unlike her impoverished co-accused, Alice was a wealthy landowner targeted for her discreet charity and suspected recusant faith. Falsely implicated by child witness Jennet Device, she refused to defend herself at trial to protect vulnerable tenants who could alibi her. Offered spectral escape in prison, Alice chose martyrdom over flight, declaring: "I will not run." On August 20, 1612, she was hanged without speaking a word in self-defense, her silence preserving both her honor and others' safety. Today, her statue in Roughlee memorializes this tragic injustice—a gentlewoman sacrificed to superstition and political vendettas. Local legend claims her ghost still walks Pendle Hill, a silent witness to history's cruelty.  
  This is the fifth book in a series of seven audiobooks and I do hope you enjoy ,(might not be the appropriate word, this instalment, and it's only $3 dollars. 
  the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2  minutes plus, called Haunting Elegy, uses flute and harp to set the scene of witches living life as they could. The closing music ends in a sad way, called Melancholy same instrumental at nearly 3 minutes as the fate that befalls these innocent people awaits them.!  
  The story itself runs to about 35 minutes, and and is narrated in my own voice. 
  Please let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!.

  80s Romance Reboot 
  Parris Afton Bonds is the New York Times Bestselling Author of more than 50 novels - most of them are historical fiction and historical romance. Join Parris as she reboots her classic romance novels as audiobooks. 
  Many of these spicy romances were originally published in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. The days of heaving bosoms, throbbing loins, and ripped bodices. He wanted to take her, and she wanted to be taken; but she wasn't going to tell him that! 
  Travel back in time to the days of big hair, big shoulders, and big libidos. 
  As a child, a young girl with coltish legs and dusky skin, I spent many anxious hours prowling the low desert and the craggy foothills of southeastern Arizona's Huachuca Mountains— anxious hours not just because I was trespassing on the forbidden Cristo Rey land grant but also because I was searching among the rocks and cactus-stubbled dunes for the Ghost Lady, hoping and praying I could get a glimpse of her and at the same time scared to death that I really would. 
  Some say she haunted that area of Cristo Rey because she was a tormented wraith looking for the lover denied her in life. And others say she rode the area, its barren deserts and rock-clad mountains and lush, grassy valleys, because her soul was condemned to wander Cristo Rey until the fifty thousand acres—and the Stronghold—were at last returned to her heirs. 
  Of course, I preferred to believe the latter . . . perhaps because at that young age my childish mind could not conceive of a love so great that it would transcend time and space. I had yet to taste of love’s binding passion. But in all likelihood I chose to believe that version of the tale because even then I knew, like my Ghost Lady, my soul would know no peace until I possessed what rightfully belonged to me . . . Cristo Rey.
