"Kateryn Parr, a thirty-year-old widow in a secret affair with a new lover, has no choice when a man who has buried four wives--King Henry VIII--commands her to marry him. Kateryn has no doubt about the danger she faces: the previous queen lasted sixteen months, the one before barely half a year. But Henry adores his new bride and Kateryn's trust in him grows as she unites the royal family, creates a radical study circle at the heart of the court, and rules the kingdom as Regent. But is this enough to keep her safe? From an author who has described all of Henry's queens comes a portrayal of the last: a woman who longed for passion, power, and education at the court of a medieval killer"--Back cover.
