Synopsis: From princess, to outcast, to powerful monarch, the tumultuous beginnings of the Virgin Queen are brought to life by the #1 bestselling author. It is recorded that never once during her life did Elizabeth Tudor speak of her mother Anne Boleyn; but did she never think of her? As a little girl, Elizabeth Tudor knows she is a princess but one day is suddenly told she is now &“the Lady Elizabeth.&” She witnesses from the sidelines the glittering splendor of her father&’s court, and the terrifying consequences of his wrath. With few she can trust, Elizabeth comes to womanhood during the reigns of her brother and sister, shrouded by a web of deceit. She lives in constant danger, yet rises above her detractors to defy her mother&’s legacy, and go down in history as one of England&’s most ruthless and powerful monarchs. Her life became a testament to the ambitions demonstrated of her parents. Just how much of an influence did Henry VIII&’s most notorious wife have on her child? And was Elizabeth&’s accession Anne Boleyn&’s final triumph over death? A powerful and compelling tale, this is the perfect read for fans of Anne O&’Brien, Elizabeth Chadwick, and Alison Weir. It is the first of four newly reissued classics of historical fiction, which also include The Tudor Heritage, The White Lion of Norfolk and The Danish Queen.
