Tra le ombre scintillanti della corte Tudor, Jane Parker cammina con passo sicuro. Gli occhi di tutti sono su di lei, ma nessuno vede davvero chi è. I segreti sono i suoi alleati, le bugie il suo scudo. Jane Parker è una moglie devota, una sorella fedele, una spia silenziosa. Ma è soprattutto la mente più acuta dell’Inghilterra di quel periodo. Mentre il potere dei Bolena vacilla e l’ira di un re imprevedibile si abbatte come una tempesta, Jane si muove sul filo delle alleanze, dove uno sguardo può tradire e un sorriso nascondere una condanna.

Once upon a time a young couple met and fell in love. You probably know that story, and how it ended (hint: badly). Only here’s the thing: That’s not how it ended at all. Romeo and Juliet are alive and well and the parents of seven kids. I’m the oldest, with the emphasis on ‘old’—a certified spinster at twenty, and happy to stay that way. It’s not easy to keep your taste for romance with parents like mine. Picture it—constant monologues, passionate declarations, fighting, making up, making out … it’s exhausting.

A marriage of dynasty: that is what is expected of Mary Sidney. A marriage to Sir Henry Herbert, earl of Pembroke, to be precise. But Mary’s sharp mind longs to work on her writing and translation projects and perhaps learn more of the alchemical arts at the elbow of the dazzling Walter Raleigh. Rose Commin, a young country girl with a surprising talent for drawing, is desperate to shrug off the slurs of witchcraft which have tarnished life at home. The opportunity to work at Wilton House, the Herbert’s Wiltshire home, is her chance.
