Book Synopsis

The murder of the Princes in the Tower is the most famous cold case in British history. Traditionally considered victims of a ruthless uncle, there are other suspects too often and too easily discounted. There may be no definitive answer, but by delving into the context of their disappearance and the characters of the suspects Matthew Lewis examines the motives and opportunities afresh as well as asking a crucial but often overlooked question: what if there was no murder? What if Edward V and his brother Richard, Duke of York survived their uncle’s reign and even that of their brother-in-law Henry VII? There are glimpses of their possible survival and compelling evidence to give weight to those glimpses, which is considered alongside the possibility of their deaths to provide a rounded and complete assessment of the most fascinating mystery in history.

  3. Very nice:)Looking forward to an up to date account of the fate of these two princes.

  4. Their murder is one of the greatest mysteries in history. Did Richard have any part in their death or was he truly just protecting them? Was it actually Henry VII who orchestrated the ‘Richard did it’? Was it even his mother Margaret Beaufort who had her husband kill the boys? I’m looking forward to hearing more on this amazing part of history.
