    Summary: 
    "From the author of The Other Boleyn Girl comes the story of Mary, Queen of Scotland. Mary has been imprisoned by her ruling cousin, Elizabeth; but will her jailers, the Early of Shrewsbury and his wife, help or harm Mary? A historical drama of shifting loyalties and secrets." -- Youth Services Team, HPL.
    "Mary is Queen of Scotland but she has been forced to flee her land and take refuge in an England that is ruled by her cousin Elizabeth. But England, precarious in its Protestant state, set against the mighty powers of Spain, France and Rome, doesn't need a charismatic Catholic figurehead at large. So Elizabeth's chief advisor, Cecil, devises a plan in which Mary will live under guard with his trusted accomplice: Bess of Hardwick. Bess is newly married to her fourth and most distinguished husband, the Earl of Shrewsbury. But what marriage can withstand the charms of Mary? Or the threat of rebellion that she always carries? Mary must wait in her privileged imprisonment for the return to Scotland and her infant son. With her characteristic combination of superb storytelling and authentic historical background, Philippa Gregory brings to life this period of great change, in a riveting tale of betrayal, loyalty, politics and passion."--Publisher.
