A Life Lived-Edith Thompson

She was meant to hang. History had already made up its mind. But what if her story had taken a different turn?
Edith Thompson: A Life Lived is a bold reimagining of one of the most sensational scandals of 1920s England — the Thompson and Bywaters affair. In this poignant and emotionally resonant novel, Edith is granted the future she never had.
Instead of the noose, she finds a second chance at life. A child. A new husband. A career. As the decades unfold, Edith’s life weaves through the Great Depression, the Second World War, and beyond — a journey marked by joy, grief, laughter, and quiet reinvention.
This is not a retelling of a tragedy. It’s a reinvention. A story of resilience and redemption. The life of a woman who escaped the headlines and reclaimed her name.
