Description
Cecily Neville, Duchess of York, was a woman driven by her family's fate. In 1459, she found herself at the centre of a plot to overthrow King Henry VI, but when the Yorkists were defeated, Cecily's family abandoned her to face a marauding Lancastrian army on her own. From the towers of her prison in Tonbridge Castle, Cecily began to spin a web of deceit that would lead to treason and ultimately, the fall of King Henry VI. This is a story of heartbreak, ambition and treachery, as one woman's quest for power unfolds during the violence and tragedy of the Wars of the Roses. Praise for Anne O'Brien's storytelling has been widely praised, with many critics noting her ability to intertwine personal and political narratives in gripping tales like this one.
