'Fierce, fresh and feminist, Fern Riddell tells the story of
Suffragette Kitty Marion in a way that fizzes and shocks. Exciting,
twisty and very very timely.' Lucy Worsley 'History with no dust.'
Matt Haig In Death in Ten Minutes Fern Riddell uncovers the story
of radical suffragette Kitty Marion, told through never before seen
personal diaries in Kitty's own hand. Kitty Marion was sent across
the country by the Pankhurst family to carry out a nationwide
campaign of bombings and arson attacks, as women fought for the
vote using any means necessary. But in the aftermath of World War
One, the dangerous and revolutionary actions of Kitty and other
militant suffragettes were quickly hushed up and disowned by the
previously proud movement, and the women who carried out these
attacks were erased from our history. Now, for the first time,
their untold story will be brought back to life. Telling a new
history of the women's movement in the light of new and often
shocking revelations, this book will ask the question: Why has the
life of this incredible woman, and the violence of the suffragettes
been forgotten? And, one hundred years later, why are women
suddenly finding themselves under threat again?
