A novel based on the story of a real attempt at a working class revolt in 19th Century Derbyshire, England. Taking their cues from the French and American Revolutions, a growing band of peasants calling themselves 'The Regenerators' led by Thomas Bacon and Jeremiah Brandreth plotted insurrection from secret meeting rooms in Nottingham and Derbyshire pubs on a scale that would bring down the government. On the night of June 9, the uprising began when the rebels embarked on a march to a prearranged site in Nottingham, hoping to meet thousands more revolutionaries from Nottingham and the north east that would join forces and together march to London and attack Parliament. But betrayal from within the plotters led to the entire operation going terribly wrong with devastating consequences for all those involved.
