Synopsis

In the winter of 1535, young Kate Carey lives with her mother, far from the royal court. Unhappy with her life and unable to accept her mother's new marriage, she wants to escape her home.

Fate takes a turn when she receives an invitation from her idolised aunt, Anne Boleyn, inviting her to join her royal household in London. At first thrilled to immerse herself in the opulence and intrigue of Henry VIII's court, Kate enters a dark and dangerous labyrinth where power, betrayal, and passion intertwine.

As she witnesses the final tragic days of her aunt's time as Henry VIII's second wife, Kate confronts the harsh realities of court life and navigates a treacherous world of secrets and political machinations. When she stumbles upon a revelation that will forever alter her destiny, Kate's world is turned upside down.

All things must end-all things but love.

This new edition of The Light in the Labyrinth includes two short stories and a poem inspired by Catherine Carey.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Award-winning Australian author of Tudor historical fiction, specialising in Anne Boleyn and Katherine of Aragon novels. Wendy J. Dunn is an award-winning Australian author, playwright and poet fascinated by Tudor history - so much so she was not surprised to discover a family connection to the Tudors, not long after the publication of her first Anne Boleyn novel narrating the Anne Boleyn story through the eyes of Sir Thomas Wyatt, the elder. Her family tree reveals the intriguing fact that one of her ancestral families - possibly over three generations - had purchased land from both the Boleyn and Wyatt families to build up their own holdings. It seems very likely Wendy's ancestors knew the Wyatts and Boleyns personally. Her second novel, The Light in the Labyrinth, set during final days of Anne Boleyn's life, revisits the Anne Boleyn story through the eyes of her niece Catherine Carey. The Duty of Daughters and All Manner of Things tells the story of Katherine of Aragon. Shades of Yellow tells the story of a woman writing a novel about Amy Robsart. All Dunn's award-winning works weave together the lyricism of poetry with the pulse of history, creating stories of love, loss, and the endurance of the human spirit.
