I Escaped The Tower of London

Product Description

BRAND NEW IN THE SURVIVAL SERIES THAT CELEBRATES THE AWESOME HISTORY OF US.

The most dreaded place in Renaissance England is the TOWER OF LONDON. So when 15-year-old Ben sees Princess Elizabeth being locked up inside, he’s alarmed. The Princess is a girl, not a criminal! Ben longs to help the Princess escape, but he’s an orphaned coal boy. What can he do? The next day, Ben delivers coal to the Princess’s cell. While Ben stokes the fire, he and the Princess devise a daring plan.

But danger lurks at every turn in the Tower’s maze-like corridors and twisting stairwells. Just when triumph seems at hand, the notorious Beefeater guards catch Ben and throw him into a rat-infested dungeon. Can Ben scale the fortress walls and escape across the putrid moat? Or is he doomed to join the ghosts of prisoners past in the Tower’s darkest depths?

From multi-award winning Ellie Crowe and Scott Peters comes a riveting, kid-powered survival adventure.
