Summary
*A stunning new unabridged recording, available on audio download*



A dramatic novel of passion, politics and betrayal from the No.1 bestselling author of The Other Boleyn Girl.


1568. Mary Queen of Scots, fleeing rebellion in her kingdom, is offered a safe haven by Elizabeth I with George Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury, and his indomitable wife, Bess of Hardwick. The arrival of an extravagant queen turns the household upside down, as it becomes clear that the visit is a house arrest.


Queen Mary makes Bess’ hard-won house a centre for unrest and treason, and – perhaps worst of all – Mary Queen of Scots’ fabled beauty starts to work on the Tudor loyalist, Bess’ own husband, George.


The two women fight for their own rights: Mary to regain the crown and the kingdom of Scotland; Bess to win back her husband and houses. A third woman can decide: Elizabeth the First, and nobody knows how far she will go to protect her own safety.



With an exclusive afterword written and read by Philippa Gregory, exploring the inspiration behind The Other Queen.

it's not Philippa Gregory's fault, but I really don't love her books when the characters are imprisoned the entire time. obviously the author doesn't get to control the history, but she does get to control who and what she writes about. and I just don't like the books where the characters never get free. she did a great job with this, as she always does, but I prefer at least a more interesting ending, if not a happy one. as for the narrators, this book had three of them. the two women were excellent, the man sounded very old, despite the fact that he was meant to be reading a 41-year-old man.
