The Following Years
Based on the real-life tragedy that shocked a nation, The Following Years is a powerful work of historical fiction exploring the devastating aftermath of the 1922–1923 Thompson and Bywaters case—one of the most notorious trials in British legal history.
When Edith Thompson was executed for a crime many believed she did not commit, her death sent shockwaves through her family and the country. Parliament would revisit her case decades later, but for her loved ones, especially her devoted sister Avis, the wounds were immediate and deeply personal.
This poignant and compelling novel follows the Thompson family as they struggle with grief, guilt, and the burden of shame in a society quick to judge. Through war, silence, and slow healing, The Following Years tells a story of resilience, love, and the long shadow cast by injustice.
