C.C. HUMPHREYS

Publication: Orion, 2002, London

First edition. Author's first novel. Signed by the author. Fine in dust jacket. Jean Rombaud was the real-life executioner of Anne Boleyn, brought over from France by Henry VIII to spare his wife any unnecessary pain. In this historical adventure, Jean Rombaud is asked by Anne Boleyn to bury her six-fingered hand -- the symbol of her rumored witchery -- in a sacred area. Europe is devastated by religious war, and the evil six-fingered hand is so powerful a relic that there are those who will kill for it!
