Nesuđena vladarica

Philippa Gregory

An exciting story about the daughters of the "kingmaker" Richard Neville, the man who decides the English throne, the most powerful magnate in 15th-century England.

Having no son or heir, the kingmaker uses his daughters Anne and Isabel as pawns in his political games and leaves them at the mercy of the wiles of the English court, which is why the girls themselves grow up to be influential players.

At the court of Edward IV and his beautiful queen Elizabeth Woodville, Anne is devastated to learn that her father has declared war on his former allies. Married at the age of fourteen, Anne soon finds herself without a husband and father, her mother seeks refuge in a refuge, and her sister Isabel, married to an enemy, intends to keep her, Anne, under house arrest.

But she saves herself by marrying Richard, Duke of Gloucester. This choice will bring her into conflict with part of the royal family and cost her the lives of those closest to her. Surrounded by spies, mysterious poisoning deaths, and black magic… Is there anyone Anne can trust?
