“A sharp and lucid blend of grim fact and stylish fiction” (Publishers Weekly), this thrilling novel in New York Times bestselling author Alison Weir’s Six Tudor Queens series follows Katharine Parr, King Henry VIII’s sixth and last wife, and the romantic intrigue after his death that threatened the very throne of England.

“A superb read and a remarkable end to a brilliant series.”—Historical Novel Society

Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived

Having sent his much-beloved but deceitful young wife Katheryn Howard to her beheading, King Henry fixes his lonely eyes on a more mature woman, thirty-year-old, twice-widowed Katharine Parr. She, however, is in love with Sir Thomas Seymour, brother to the late Queen Jane. Aware of his rival, Henry sends him abroad, and in 1543, Katharine reluctantly becomes Henry’s sixth Queen. They forge a loving and affectionate relationship, but her enemies are poised to destroy her, and she has to tread a perilous path to avoid becoming the third of the King’s wives to suffer execution.

Less than four years into the marriage, Henry dies, leaving England’s throne to nine-year-old Edward—a puppet in the hands of ruthlessly ambitious royal courtiers. Thomas Seymour wastes no time in asking Katharine to marry him. Thrilled at this renewed opportunity to wed her first love, Katharine doesn’t realize that Sir Thomas now sees her as a mere stepping stone to the throne, his eye actually set on bedding and wedding the late King’s fourteen-year-old daughter, Elizabeth.

Thus begins a tangled tale of love, deception, and a devastating betrayal, bringing to a close the dramatic and violent reign of Henry VIII.
