This book weaves together the lives and fates of four of its youngest and most blameless: Lady Katherine Grey, Lady Jane's younger sister; Kate Plantagenet, an English princess who lived nearly a century before her; and Edward and Richard, the boy princes imprisoned by their ruthless uncle, Richard III, never to be heard from again. Across the years, these four young royals shared the same small rooms in their dark prison, as all four shared the unfortunate role of being perceived as threats to the reigning monarch.

Work Description
Alison Weir's engrossing new novel of historical suspense tells the dramatic intertwined stories of two women: Katherine Grey, whose world falls apart when her older sister, Jane, is imprisoned and executed for unlawfully accepting the English crown; and her distant kinswoman Kate Plantagenet, the bastard daughter of Richard III. Separated by time, Katherine and Kate are linked by twin destinies involving the mysterious tragic fate of the Princes in the Tower.
