Horrible Histories

As teenagers Connor and friends had visited the London Dungeons. That was the kind of gruesome history they'd been interested in.

It didn't seem so interesting now.

Connor's hands had been tied high above his head, stretching him out against the stake and making the injuries from his interrogation hurt afresh. He closed his eyes against the hate-filled, baying crowd, and wished he could shut out what the priest was saying and the crackle of the burning torch poised to light the pyre.

Somewhere beyond it all, bizarrely, Connor thought he could hear the sound of thunder.

He was history.
