Mother. Survivor. Queen. The spellbinding story of Elizabeth of York, the first Tudor queen.
Eldest daughter of the royal House of York, Elizabeth dreams of a crown to call her own. But when her beloved father, King Edward, dies suddenly, her destiny is rewritten.
Her family's enemies close in. Two young princes are murdered in the Tower. Then her uncle seizes power - and vows to make Elizabeth his queen.
But another claimant seeks the throne, the upstart son of the rival royal House of Lancaster. Marriage to this Henry Tudor would unite the white rose of York and the red of Lancaster - and change everything.
A great new age awaits. Now Elizabeth must choose her allies - and husband - wisely, and fight for her right to rule.
