About the Book

The court of Henry VIII is rife with intrigue, rivalries and romance - and none are better placed to understand this than the women at its heart. Katherine Parr, widowed for the second time aged thirty-one, is obliged to return to court but, suspicious of the aging king and those who surround him, she does so with reluctance. Nevertheless, when she finds herself caught up in a passionate affair with the dashing and seductive Thomas Seymour, she believes she might finally be able to marry for love. But her presence at court has attracted the attentions of another...Captivated by her honesty and intelligence, Henry Tudor has his own plans for Katherine and no one is in the position to refuse a proposal from the king. So with her charismatic lover dispatched to the continent, Katherine must accept the hand of the ailing egotistical monarch and become Henry's sixth wife - and yet she has still not quite given up on love.

Review :
The Tudor court comes to life in this gripping story of Katherine Parr, where passion secrecy and betrayal power the suspense Rich and enticing Beautifully written and finely observed, this suspenseful tale of Henry the Eighth's last wife expertly conveys all the dangerous intensity and passion of the Tudor court Electric With a painter's eye for detail, Fremantle brings the dazzling, dangerous Tudor court to life and sheds an intriguing new light on Katherine Parr, one of history's great survivors. An enthralling tale of power and passion, loyalty and betrayal A major new voice in historical fiction and the answer to the question about what Hilary Mantel fans should read while waiting for the final part of her trilogy A sumptuous epic Wildly entertaining... and one of the best historical novels I've read. It is Fremantle's first book. I hope it will not be her last. Breathes vibrant life into Henry VIII's most intriguing, intelligent and least known wife, Katherine Parr
