The Kingmaker's Daughter: Cousins' War 4: COUSINS' WAR
Autor Philippa Gregoryen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 mar 2013
Anne Neville and her sister Isabel are daughters of the most powerful magnate in 15th century England, the Earl of Warwick, the ‘Kingmaker’, born with royal blood in their veins. Widowed at fourteen, fatherless, stripped of her inheritance, her mother locked in sanctuary and her once beloved sister, Isabel, now a vengeful enemy, Anne faces the world alone.
But fortune’s wheel is always turning. Plotting her escape from her sister’s house, she finds herself a husband in the handsome young Duke of Gloucester, and marries without permission. Danger follows her and she finds she has a mortal enemy in the most beautiful queen of England. Anne must protect herself and her precious only son, from the treacherous royal court, her deadly royal rival, and even from the driving ambition of her husband, Richard III.
