From the bestselling author of
A Rose for the Crown
and
Daughter of York
, a beautiful and compelling story of a young woman that history has nearly forgotten on a quest for the truth about the murder of two boys and a man who claims to be king.
All that history knows of Grace Plantagenet is that she was an illegitimate daughter of Edward IV and one of two attendants aboard the funeral barge of his widowed queen. Thus, she was half sister of the famous young princes, who had been housed in the Tower by their uncle, Richard III and were presumed dead.
But now, when this story begins in the 1490s, a young man appears at the courts of Europe claiming to be Richard, Duke of York, the younger of the boys, and seeking to claim his rightful throne from England's first Tudor king, Henry VII. But is this man who he says he is? Or is he Perkin Warbeck, a puppet of Margaret of York, duchess of Burgundy, who is determined to regain the crown for her York family? Grace Plantagenet finds herself in the midst of one of English history's greatest mysteries. If she can discover the fate of the princes and the true identity of Perkin Warbeck, perhaps she will find her own place in her family.
