Description

Set against the shifting loyalties of Tudor England, this gripping historical novel follows a man drawn into the dangerous orbit of royal power, where duty, ambition, and survival collide. As court intrigue tightens and political stakes rise, he must navigate alliances and betrayals that test both his conscience and his courage. With du Maurier’s signature command of atmosphere and character-driven tension, the story explores themes of loyalty, moral compromise, and the cost of serving a crown. Rich in period detail and propelled by suspense, it offers a vivid, page-turning look at how personal choices can echo through the machinery of history.
