Historical
Richard III is said to have murdered his nephews for their
throne, but this second historical novel in the ROSE OF YORK
series--winners of a remarkable ten awards--tells a
different, well-documented, and dramatic story: A man of
conscience, Richard is a reluctant king, forced into power
and chosen by destiny to save a nation from bloody civil
war. Set in Malory's England during the Wars of the Roses, the
fifteenth century is a dangerous time when the passions of a
few determine the fate
of a nation. After Edward IV's death in 1483, his detested queen
Elizabeth Woodville makes a grab for power in court rotten
with intrigue. To avert civil war, Richard of Gloucester
must betray his royal brother's secret, for which another
brother has already died. With war looming, to protect those
he loves, Richard is forced into the most excruciating
decision of his life, one that will change the course of
history.
