Synopsis

In the tenth installment of Alison Weir's acclaimed Elizabeth of England Chronicles, the aging queen faces new challenges and old enemies.

As Elizabeth I enters her twilight years, she is still as formidable a ruler as ever. But she is also beginning to show her age. Her health is declining, and she is increasingly reliant on her closest advisors.

One of those advisors is Robert Cecil, the ambitious and ruthless Earl of Salisbury. Cecil is determined to secure his own position after Elizabeth's death, and he is not above using underhanded tactics to achieve his goals.

Another of Elizabeth's advisors is her cousin, Lord Henry Howard. Howard is a loyal and trusted friend, but he is also a devout Catholic. As the religious tensions in England mount, Howard finds himself increasingly at odds with the queen.

As Elizabeth's reign draws to a close, she must confront the challenges of old age, the ambitions of her advisors, and the threats to her kingdom. Can she maintain her power and legacy, or will she be overthrown by her enemies?
