Description
Two women, two very different destinies, drawn together in the shadow of the Tower of London.
Elizabeth of York, her life already tainted by dishonour and tragedy, now queen to the first Tudor king, Henry the VII. Joan Vaux, servant of the court, straining against marriage and motherhood and privy to the deepest and darkest secrets of her queen. Like the ravens, Joan must use her eyes and her senses, as conspiracy whispers through the dark corridors of the Tower. Through Joans eyes, The Lady of the Ravens inhabits the squalid streets of Tudor London, the whispering walls of its most fearsome fortress and the glamorous court of a kingdom in crisis.
Praise for the author:
"An intriguing tale, told with confidence." THE TIMES
"A bewitching first novel...alive with historical detail." GOOD HOUSEKEEPING
