If you love the BBC's The White Queen you'll love this. Meet the
woman who survived Henry VIII in Elizabeth Fremantle's first novel,
Queen's Gambit... My name is Katherine Parr. I'm 31 years old and
already twice widowed. I'm in love with a man I can't have, and am
about to wed a man no-one would want - for my husband-to-be is none
other than Henry VIII, who has already beheaded two wives, cast
aside two more, and watched one die in childbirth. What will become
of me once I'm wearing his ring and become Queen of England? They
say that the sharpest blades are sheathed in the softest pouches.
Only time will tell what I am really made of... For fans of Hilary
Mantel, Philippa Gregory and Alison Weir, Elizabeth Fremantle's
first novel, Queen's Gambit, is a riveting account of the Tudor
queen who married four men and outlived three of them - including
Henry VIII. Rich in atmosphere and period detail, and told through
the eyes of Katherine and her young maid Dot, it tells the story of
two very different women during a terrifying and turbulent time. If
you loved Wolf Hall, The Other Boleyn Girl or the BBC drama series
The Tudors, then Elizabeth Fremantle's Queen's Gambit is the book
for you. 'Gripping' Woman & Home 'Sumptuous' Metro 'A major new
voice in historical fiction'The Bookseller 'Rich and enticing'
Stylist 'Electric' Good Housekeeping 'Wildly entertaining'
