A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Lucy Percy was the courtly beauty—a charming lady whose considerable talentsin the ballrooms, bedrooms and anterooms of the court of Charles I were, inthe end, not enough to keep her from the Tower of London. Lucy’s sister Dorothywas the country wife—mother of 12 children, a domineering and politicallysavvy woman whose unaspiring husband’s eventual rebellion caused a publicscandal. Together the Countess of Carlisle and the Countess of Leicester wereat the centre of power during one of Britain’s most tumultuous periods. Thisrichly detailed, intriguing story of two exceptional sisters is a must-read for fans ofCharlotte Gray, Sandra Gulland and Jane Dunn.
