Cecily has piloted his rise to power and stands at his shoulder now, first to claim the title King's Mother.But to win a throne is not to keep it and war is come again. As brother betrays brother, and trusted cousins turn treacherous, other mothers rise up to fight for other sons. Cecily must focus her will to defeat every challenge. Wherever they come from. Whatever the cost.For there can be only one King, and only one King's Mother.From the Wars of the Roses to the dawn of the Tudor age, this is a story of mothers and sons; of maternal ferocity and female ambition - of all they can build and all they can destroy.'Elegant and propulsive . . .
