The King's Revenge: Charles II and the Greatest Manhunt in British History by Don Jordon

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

A serviceable summary of the matter of the Regicides. However, the title is misleading, as much of it is a historical account of Civil War politics, and the writing rather tendentious. And blunders like "Stadtholder" De Witt and "Charles XIV" of France make me wonder if they skimped on editing.
