Following the acclaimed Queen's Gambit comes a new novel of intrigue and menace at the Tudor Court

In a court ruled by a paranoid Queen, possessing royal blood can be the gravest crime of all...

Fearing traitors amongst her court, the aging Queen Mary orders the execution of her cousin, Lady Jane Grey. Cursed with royal blood her young sisters Katherine and Mary must now face the Tudor court alone.

Katherine, a beauty amongst the queen's maids, makes dangerous romantic liaisons. While fiercely clever Mary reluctantly becomes the Queen's confidante.

And so Katherine and Mary find themselves in a maze of treachery, suspicion and danger - where royal blood could be their death warrant. . .
