Sowerbutt's Past

Sowerbutt and Madog ap Llywelyn spent 18 well-paid months together in Spain during the civil war, working for the royalist Renovacion Espanola, dispatching selected opponents of the absent Spanish monarch, King Alfonso XIII, to pave the way for his return.
But like so many well-laid wartime plans, the royal comeback to Spain never eventuated. Despite his royalist leanings, Generalissimo Franco was not enthusiastic about sharing power with anyone, not even his anointed king or his successor. amazon.co.uk/Colour-Lemon-S
