“Intrigue, romance, and period details abound in this riveting story of Tudor England.” — School Library Journal
“Suzanne Crowley’s prose entranced me—it was as delicate and magical as Katherine’s needlework—transporting me to a world rich with mystery and romance.” — Mary Pearson, author of The Adoration of Jenna Fox
