Book Description
An innocent pawn
A kingdom without a king
A new dynasty will reign…
1415. The jewel in the French crown, Katherine de Valois, is waiting under lock and key for King Henry V. While he’s been slaughtering her kinsmen in Agincourt, Katherine has been praying for marriage to save her from her misery. But the brutal king wants her crown, not her innocent love.
For Katherine, England is a lion’s den of greed, avarice and mistrust. And when she is widowed at twenty-one, she becomes a prize ripe for the taking—her young son the future monarch, her hand in marriage worth a kingdom.
This is a deadly political game, one the dowager queen must learn fast. The players—the Duke of Gloucester, Edmund Beaufort and Owen Tudor—are circling. Who will have her? Who will ruin her? This is the story of Katherine de Valois.

I would love to be entered for this book giveaway, as i am not only an avid reader and literature lover but i also adore historical fiction. My love of the Tudors began when i was at primary school aged 11 and i visited ‘Hampton Court Palace’ – ever since i have taken so much pleasure in exploring this particular time in history and delving into the past lives of the Tudors, inc. Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII
Sounds interesting:-)
Intriguing! I don’t know much about Katherine de Valois, and would like to read about her.
Hi!, I´m from Argentina and I would love to win a copy of this book. Nowadays it is really difficult to find this kind of good books to read here.

I have been Tudor obsessed since a child even tried reading the court papers and letters to my ten year old put him off for life I think. Xx
I am watching “She-Wolves: England’s Early Queens” So fascinating. It does not matter how many times I read or hear the stories, I always learn something new.
