Mark Trace shows a remarkable talent for literary forgery. He is
working in London at one of the UK's oldest literary magazines when
the trouble really starts. Hemingway and Greene are only the
beginning. What starts as a prank soon becomes deadly serious.
Young Edward VI is crowned king upon the death of his father, Henry
VIII - but he is only nine years old. How can he fight his way
through the treacherous adult world to claim the sovereignty he is
entitled to? This thoroughly researched novel features some of
best-known and most intriguing characters in English history -
including, of course, King Henry VIII and his many wives. This
story presents a balanced view of Edward VI, who is often portrayed
as an unpleasant, rather sickly child, whose death was inevitable.
Above all, it's a page-turning read not to be missed.
The stories in the "World War II Flashbacks" series draw the reader
into the experiences and emotions of a young person's life, caught
against a period backdrop of historical upheaval. The child reader
can also absorb important historical details that might otherwise
be taught only as dry facts.
