Description

Mary, Queen of Scots, fights to regain her kingdom while under the guard of Elizabeth I's trusted ally, Bess of Hardwick. As Mary seeks refuge in England, a Protestant realm threatened by Spain, France and Rome, Elizabeth's advisor Cecil arranges for Mary to live under guard with Bess, the shrewd, self-made wife of the Earl of Shrewsbury. But which marriage can withstand Mary’s charms—and the risk of rebellion she may spark? Mary awaits in her privileged imprisonment for the return to Scotland and her infant son, but waiting is not the same as doing nothing. Philippa Gregory brings this turbulent period to life with historical detail and gripping storytelling as part of her Tudor series.
