Description

The Shadow Queen by Anne O'Brien A tale of ambition, treachery and desire, this historical novel tells the story of Joan of Kent's ascent through the court to command royal power alongside her young son, King Richard II. Born into royalty, Joan must navigate a complex web of politics and relationships to secure her place in the kingdom. With her reputation built on beauty, rumour and scandal, Joan knows she must play the game carefully to protect herself. She will do whatever it takes to get what she wants: The Crown of England. This gripping narrative explores the darker side of royal life, where power is everything and one misstep can be fatal. As Joan's story unfolds, a portrait of medieval politics and intrigue emerges, revealing the intricate relationships between those who shape the course of history.
