A woman’s ambition. A mother’s love. Just how far will she go to claim the throne?
Widowed in her early teens, Margaret Beaufort always believed she was destined for greatness. Determined to seized the English throne, Margaret forges a secret alliance with The Dowager Queen, Elizabeth Woodville.
United by their shared desire to overthrow King Richard III, Margaret agrees a betrothal between Henry Tudor, her only son, and Elizabeth's daughter, uniting their families and resolving the Cousins War once and for all.
The Red Queen is the captivating story of the formidable woman who’s resilience helped found the Tudor dynasty.
