The Kindred Spirits series – 10 years old in October 2025!

The first of the Kindred Spirits series, Kindred Spirits: Tower of London, was initially released by Crooked Cat Books, in October 2015, making the series a whole decade old this month…

Following the closure of Darkstroke Books in 2024, the whole series is now republished, self-published, by Jennifer C. Wilson, through Ocelot Press.

Below are details of Kindred Spirits: Tower of London, with the book cover also attached.

A King, three Queens, a handful of nobles and a host of former courtiers…

In the Tower of London, the dead outnumber the living, with the likes of Tudor Queens Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard rubbing shoulders with one man who has made his way back from his place of death at Bosworth Field to discover the truth about the disappearance of his famous nephews.

Amidst the chaos of daily life, with political and personal tensions running high, Richard III takes control, as each ghostly resident looks for their own peace in the former palace – where privacy was always a limited luxury.

With so many characters haunting the Tower of London, will they all find the calm they crave? But foremost – will the young Plantagenet Princes join them?

"A ghost story with a difference."

"Immensely enjoyable and ghostly historical novel."

"A wonderful book - and a must for all fans of King Richard III."

• Kindred Spirits: Royal Mile
