The Boleyn Inheritance
Philippa Gregory
Set in 1539 after the death of Jane Seymour, this novel chronicles King Henry VIII's subsequent marriages through the alternating first-person narratives of three women: Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Jane Boleyn (Lady Rochford). Anne of Cleves, a German duchess, is chosen for a political alliance but soon finds her marriage in jeopardy. The young, beautiful Katherine Howard, cousin of the executed Anne Boleyn, captures the king's eye and is thrust into a position of immense peril. Jane Boleyn, haunted by her past involvement in the downfall of her husband and sister-in-law, returns to court, determined to survive the political machinations. The story follows the three women as they navigate the increasingly volatile and fearful Tudor court, where the prize of the crown is as dangerous as the possibility of inheriting the deadly fate of Henry's previous queens.
