It’s a new series from bestsellin­g writer and historian Alison Weir – starting with the tumultuous life of Henry VII’s bride, Elizabeth York, the first Tudor queen. The eldest daughter of the House of York was born into a war between two families, so when her father dies, her family’s enemies close in.
