From #1 "New York Times" bestselling author Philippa Gregory, the little-
known story of three Tudor women who are united in sisterhood and yet
compelled to be rivals when they fulfill their destinies as queens. As
sisters they share an everlasting bond; as queens they can break each other
s hearts When Katherine of Aragon is brought to the Tudor court as a young
bride, the oldest princess, Margaret, takes her measure. With one look,
each knows the other for a rival, an ally, a pawn, destined with Margaret s
younger sister Mary to a unique sisterhood. The three sisters will become
the queens of England, Scotland, and France. United by family loyalties and
affections, the three queens find themselves set against each other.
Katherine commands an army against Margaret and kills her husband James IV
of Scotland. But Margaret s boy becomes heir to the Tudor throne when
Katherine loses her son. Mary steals the widowed Margaret s proposed
husband, but when Mary is widowed it is her secret marriage for love that
is the envy of the others. As they experience betrayals, dangers, loss, and
passion, the three sisters find that the only constant in their perilous
lives is their special bond, more powerful than any man, even a king."
