## About this book

Margaret Pole carries Plantagenet blood in a kingdom now ruled by the Tudors, which makes her a rival claimant the new dynasty prefers to keep close. Married to a loyal Tudor supporter, she becomes guardian to Arthur, Prince of Wales, and his bride, Katherine of Aragon. Tragedy throws her into poverty until the old king's death returns her to court as lady in waiting to Queen Katherine, just as young Henry VIII begins his turn from golden boy to tyrant.

The sixth Cousins' War novel asks what loyalty costs when friendship and survival pull in opposite directions. Margaret also keeps a dangerous secret: a curse was laid on the Tudor line, and she is watching it come true. It is a rich, absorbing choice for anyone who likes Tudor history seen through the eyes of a clever, watchful woman.
