Romance Historical
The epic story of the queen who founded the Tudor dynasty,
told through the eyes of her loyal nursemaid. Perfect for
fans of Philipa Gregory. Her beauty fuelled a war.
Her courage captured a king.
Her passion would launch the Tudor dynasty. When her own first child is tragically still-born, the young
Mette is pressed into service as a wet-nurse at the court of
the mad king, Charles VI of France. Her young charge is the
princess, Catherine de Valois, caught up in the turbulence
and chaos of life at court. Mette and the child forge a bond, one that transcends
Mette’s lowly position. But as Catherine approaches womanhood, her unique position
seals her fate as a pawn between two powerful dynasties. Her
brother, The Dauphin and the dark and sinister, Duke of
Burgundy will both use Catherine to further the cause of France. Catherine is powerless to stop them, but with the French
defeat at the Battle of Agincourt, the tables turn and
suddenly her currency has never been higher. But can Mette
protect Catherine from forces at court who seek to harm her
or will her loyalty to Catherine place her in even greater
danger?
