reign  six different women took their place beside King Henry VIII of England as his wife and
queen. But the real stories of the six Tudor queens belong to those who lived among them.
Played out in glittering palaces and whispering courts  these are tales of the people who loved

time  In the Shadow of Queens reveals thirteen startling stories from the Tudor court  told by
those at the very heart of that world. ALISON WEIR. Groundbreaking truth. Breathtaking fiction.
