Two sisters: united by blood, divided by the crown... Mary and
Elizabeth is an unforgettable story of a powerful love affair that
changed the course of history, perfect for fans of The Tudors and
Philippa Gregory. They shared childhood memories and grown-up
dreams... Mary was England's precious jewel, the surviving child of
the tumultuous relationship between Henry VIII and Catherine of
Aragon. However, when Henry fell passionately in love with the
dark-eyed Anne Boleyn, he cast his wife and daughter aside. Henry
and Anne's union sees the birth of Elizabeth. Mary is soon declared
a bastard, stripped of all royal privileges, performing the
lowliest tasks. But, there is something about Elizabeth. And Mary
soon grows to love her like a sister. After the passage of three
years, and Anne Boleyn's execution, Henry can no longer bear the
sight of his female heir. With the birth of a son, Edward, both
Mary and Elizabeth seem destined for oblivion. But as history will
show, fate had something far more elaborate in store...
