In the glittering yet perilous Tudor court, three women’s lives intertwine under the shadow of the Boleyn name. Anne of Cleves is chosen to marry King Henry VIII for alliance, not affection, but her new husband’s temper quickly turns her triumph into a trap. Katherine Howard, young and radiant, captures the king’s wandering eye and believes her beauty can save her. Watching them both is Jane Rochford, widow of George Boleyn, whose ambition and guilt bind her to the court’s dark intrigues.
Each woman seeks survival in a world where loyalty is lethal and love a weapon.
From New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory, The Boleyn Inheritance reveals the passions, betrayals, and deadly bargains of Henry VIII’s wives and courtiers.
