內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介:Three different, yet equally relentless women who will scheme, manipulate, and seduce their way onto the English throne.

When Jacquetta is left a wealthy young widow, she returns to England and achieves a place at the very heart of the Lancaster court, though she can sense the danger of their royal York rivals. As Jacquetta fights for her king and her queen, she can see an extraordinary and unexpected future for her daughter Elizabeth: a change of fortune, the throne of England, and the white rose of York. . . .
