Trade ReviewRobyn Young realistically evokes the brutal world of the late fifteenth century, and interweaves a gripping tale with a highly original take on Richard III and the Princes in the Tower.

high calibre. More, please! -- Alison Weir

writes with her usual gusto. The battle scenes are gory and the plot twists sharp. * The Times *
The first novel in a new series by Robyn Young, and this in itself is
a cause for celebration. Robyn Young is one of the finest writers I've read in recent years.
Her prose is beautiful, her historical fiction enriched by meticulous research and great empathy for its characters. * For Winter Nights blog *

astounding feat of historical fiction that breathes new life into a turbulent, exciting, and surprisingly relevant period of history.
Crammed full with action, adventure, intrigue, politics and brilliant characters, this is a must read. * The Bookbag *
A
vivid and utterly compelling novel that brilliantly evokes one of the darkest and most turbulent periods of our history.
I could not put it down. -- Tracy Borman
