Présentation de l'éditeur :
Revue de presse :
Two murdered princes; a powerful queen betrayed; a nobleman riding towards his certain death...
The story of the Princes in the Tower has been one of the most fascinating - and most brutal - murder mysteries in history for more than five hundred years.
In a brilliant feat of historical daring, Emma Darwin has recreated the terrible, exhilarating world of the two youngest victims of the War of the Roses: the power struggles and passion that lay behind their birth, the danger into which they fell, the profoundly moving days before their imprisonment, and the ultimate betrayal of their innocence.
In A Secret Alchemy, three voices speak: that of Elizabeth Woodville, the beautiful widow of King Edward IV; of her brother Anthony, surrogate father to the doomed Prince Edward and his brother Dickon; and that of present-day historian Una Pryor. Orphaned, and herself brought up in a family where secrets and rivalries threaten her world, Una's experience of tragedy, betrayal and lost love help her unlock the long-buried secrets that led to the princes' deaths.
Weaving their stories together, Emma Darwin brilliantly evokes how the violence and glamour of past ages live on within our present.
“Powerful and utterly convincing.” (Daily Mail (London) on A SECRET ALCHEMY)
“There are many twists and turns in this tale, some of them real, some of them not; together they add up to a spellbinding whole.” (London Times on A SECRET ALCHEMY)
“Emma Darwin follows up on the great success of her debut novel The Mathematics of Love with this engaging work of historical fiction...This is a work of great atmosphere and a story well told. (The Sunday Mail (Australia) on A SECRET ALCHEMY)
“A Secret Alchemy was ... absorbing, interesting, well-written, and utterly enjoyable.” (www.fyreflybooks.wordpress.com)
