Synopsis

England and Scotland in the 1500s. Two famous queens - Mary, the Catholic Queen of Scots, and Elizabeth I, the Protestant Queen of England. It was an exciting and a dangerous time to be alive, and to be a queen. Mary was Queen of Scotland when she was one week old. At sixteen, she was also Queen of France. She was tall and beautiful, with red-gold hair. Many men loved her and died for her. But she also had many enemies - men who said: 'The death of Mary is the life of Elizabeth.'

Biographie de l'auteur

Tim Vicary is an experienced teacher and writer, and has written several stories for the Oxford Bookworms Librarv. Many of these are in the Thriller and Adventure series, such as White Death (at Stage 1), or in the True Stories series, such as Mutiny on the Bounty (also at Stage 1), which is about Captain Bligh and his voyage to the South sens. In his story about Mary, Queen of Scots, all the characters were real people. Perhaps Mary wrote a letter to her son James, with the true story of her life, but we don't really know. And the question still has no answer. Did Mary kill, or help to kill, her husband Darnley? People still argue about this today. Tim Vicary has two children, and keeps dogs, cats, and horses. He lives and works in York, in the north of England, and has also published two long novels, The Blood upon the Rose and Cat and Mouse.
