APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Few authors do romance and Tudor brutality quite like Philippa Gregory. In the wake of Edward IV’s death, we follow a pious and rather prissy Lady Jane Grey and her two sisters—all portrayed as victims of a conniving and manipulative court—as the power grabs intensify. It's Lady Grey's sisters who make for the most captivating characters in this bawdy-but-razor sharp historical romp: Catherine is charming and wary, while Mary is the canny dwarf determined to be the last Tudor standing.
