This is a fictionalized account of the relationship of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville. It is more fictionalized than account.

I wasn't too enamoured of the character development and found that because of the number of people named after other people, I frequently had to reread paragrpahs. It was one of those boos that's a good read when you're not feeling well.

Fairly good historical fiction set in the reign of James VI of Scots (I of England) begining at the time of the alleged witchcraft plot against the king blamed on Bothwell.

This is supposed to be a classic romance book but I just couldn't get into it.

Back Cover Blurb:
Story of a Scottish King killed by rebels led by his own son, this book is the aftermath of the King's death and how the Hepburn deals with it.
