Queen's Fool, Theby Phillipa Gregory Read by Hilary Michel (1 Cd) This is a thrilling read, full of plots and passionate liaisons, a real page turner. It depicts the struggle between sisters Mary and Elizabeth in Tudor England. The book invites the readers to rethink their opinions of both 'Bloody' Mary and the 'Virgin Queen'. At a time when an innocent woman could be burned for heresy or strangled for witchcraft, to spy on the Queen for love of a traitor was the most dangerous choice of all. Into all of this comes Hannah a young Jewish girl on the run from the Inquisition. Sworn into the service of handsome Robert Dudley, he sends her as a Holy Fool to spy on Princess Mary Tudor, the forgotten heir to King Edward's throne. Instead of the tyrant of popular legend, Hannah finds a woman wanting the best for the kingdom while her sister Elizabeth lies in wait for the slightest mistake and longs for her sisters death. Caught up with all this and her infatuation with Dudley and duty to her family she must find a safe way through dangerous times.
