Produktbeschreibung

"A magnificent portrait of a great queen."-The Boston Herald

Fans of Phillipa Gregory, Kate Morton, and Marie Benedict will love this compelling story of Elizabeth of York, the first Tudor Queen, who united a kingdom in turmoil and laid the foundation for England's most famous and dramatic kings and queens to come.

As a young woman, Elizabeth of York has the most valuable possession in all of England-a legitimate claim to the crown. Her quest to do what is right for her country and her family throws her into a tumultuous drama of political intrigue, rebellion, and murder.

Two princes battle to win Britain's most rightful heiress for a bride and her kingdom for his own. On one side is her uncle Richard, the last Plantagenet King, whom she fears is the murderer of her two brothers, the would-be kings. On the other side is Henry Tudor, the exiled knight. Now, Elizabeth must choose who will make the better king of England and even still, who she will marry.

Thrust into the intrigue and drama of the War of the Roses, Elizabeth has a country within her grasp-if she can find the strength to unite a kingdom torn apart by a thirst for power.
