The third instalment in a prize-winning series charting the rise of
the House of Medici as they become Masters of Florence and
progenitors of the Renaissance. Fontainebleau, 1536. Francis II,
dauphin of France, is dead. Poisoned. And the royal court believe
Catherine de' Medici to be the murderer. With the heir apparent
dead, her husband Henry will now be the next King of France - and
her queen - and Catherine's family is known to stop at nothing to
consolidate their power. But not yet queen and without an heir of
her own, Catherine cannot be sure of securing her family's legacy.
To ensure the conception of an heir, she will need to seek help
from an unexpected ally: Nostradamus, the reclusive astronomer and
purported seer. Dismissed by most as a charlatan and a heretic, she
knows he will be her only hope in becoming a mother. Amid court
intrigues, betrayals and humiliations, Catherine now waits. Awaits
the death of her father-in-law, King Francis, and awaits the birth
of a son who will carry her name. For once she is queen, Catherine
de' Medici's power will only grow. But that power comes at a heavy
cost, one she might ever regret.
