" An] impressive novel . . . Weir keeps the tension high, breathing new life into a familiar tale."--Booklist, starred review
Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived
Ever since she was a child, Jane has longed for a cloistered life as a nun. But her large noble family has other plans, and as an adult, Jane is invited to the King's court to serve as lady-in-waiting to Queen Katherine of Aragon, Henry VIII's kind, devout wife.
After King Henry disavows Katherine and lustfully secures Anne Boleyn as his new queen--forever altering the religious landscape of England--he soon turns his eye to another: Jane herself. Urged to return the King's affection and earn favor for her family, Jane is drawn into a dangerous political game that pits her conscience against her desires. Can Jane be the one to give the King his long-sought-after son, or will she be cast aside like the women who came before her?
