| Summary | "Robin Tremayne" by Emily Sarah Holt is a historical novel set in the 1550s, during the tumultuous period of religious conflict in England when Catholicism was enforced under Queen Mary, and Protestantism faced severe oppression. The book explores the lives of several Protestant characters, including the titular Robin Tremayne, who navigates the dangers of preaching the Gospel amid the threats of imprisonment and persecution, depicting the human spirit's resilience against tyranny. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to the Tremayne family, primarily through Custance Tremayne, Robin's mother, who exhibits a tranquil demeanor despite the surrounding chaos. The narrative hints at familial bonds and friendships as various characters congregate in their household, discussing matters of health and society. The arrival of Robin’s friends and the somber news of the death of King Henry VIII brings forth a flurry of emotions and reflections on the changing political landscape, setting the stage for the ensuing struggles that accompany the Protestant faith's resurrection under King Edward VI. This initial chapter captures the essence of both personal and societal upheaval, inviting readers into a rich tapestry of human experience marked by faith and perseverance.
