Here is the book blurb:
London, 1501. In a time of political unrest, Varina Westcott, a young widow and candlemaker for court and church, agrees to perform a clandestine service for Queen Elizabeth of York, wife of Henry VII. She works under the watchful eye of handsome Nicholas Sutton, an ambitious assistant to the royals. Then from Wales comes news of the unexpected death of Prince Arthur, heir to the throne, who has recently wed Catherine of Aragon. Varina and Nick travel to wild Wales to investigate the prince’s death and find ties to the disappearance of the queen’s brothers, the Princes in the Tower. Now that murderer is stalking them in an attempt to bring down the new Tudor dynasty. Publisher’s Weekly says, “With impeccable research and just enough romance, bestseller Harper illuminates a part of Tudor history often ignored. Harper writes with effortless prose and an expert take on the era.
