Historical
England, 1554. In the wake of the failed Wyatt
Rebellion, a vengeful Queen Mary has ordered all
conspirators captured and executed. Among the imprisoned
is her own sister, twenty-one-year-old Princess Elizabeth.
Though she protests her innocence, Elizabeth's brave stand
only angers Mary more. Elizabeth longs to gain her
liberty and her sister's crown. In Honor and Richard
Thornleigh and their son, Adam, the young princess has
loyal allies. Disgusted by Queen Mary's proclaimed intent
to burn heretics, Honor visits Elizabeth in the Tower and
they quickly become friends. And when Adam foils a would-
be assassin, Elizabeth's gratitude swells into a powerful
and mutual attraction. But while Honor is willing to risk
her own safety for her future queen, aiding in a new
rebellion against the wrathful Mary will soon lead her to
an impossible choice... Riveting, masterfully written,
and rich in intricate details, The Queen's Captive
brings one of history's most fascinating and treacherous
periods to vibrant, passionate life
