A proposito di questo titolo
England, 1558
Sixteen-year-old Catherine Seymour has always idolized her elder sister Jane. As a child was groomed to be queen, to marry her cousin King Edward, and since his death she has been determined to restore her family's claim to throne.
After spending time at Queen Mary's court, Jane has now returned home to Hanworth Park to the delight of Catherine and their brother Ned. To their surprise, Jane brings with her Lady Catherine Grey, sister of Jane Grey, the ill-fated nine-day queen, and heiress to the throne after Princess Elizabeth.
Jane confides in Catherine that she aims to bring about a betrothal between Lady Grey and Ned, so that their brother and his children have a chance to lay claim to the throne.
But everything changes when Mary suddenly dies, and Elizabeth succeeds as queen. Luckily, Elizabeth's succession proves advantageous for the Seymour family. Jane is chosen as a lady in waiting and immediately becomes a favorite.
Can Jane still bring her plan to fruition? Will it mean betraying the new queen?
Or will rumors of a romance between Queen Elizabeth and one of her courtiers change everything for the Seymour sisters...?
