Book
Rivals in the Tudor court / D.L. Bogdan.
Elizabeth Stafford, Queen Catherine's maid and daughter of the Duke of Buckingham, has been engaged to Thomas Howard, third Duke of Norfolk. Surprised by her burgeoning affection for her husband, she vows to fight for her love and her honor when he takes a mistress: the naïve and vulnerable Bess Holland. But their competition for his attention is overshadowed by an obsession neither can rival: the duke's quest to weave the Howard name into the royal bloodline. The women's loyalties are tested as his schemes unfold--among them the litigious marriage of his niece, Anne Boleyn, to King Henry the VIII. But in an age of ruthless beheadings, no self-serving motive goes unpunished--and Elizabeth and Bess will have to fight a force more sinister than the executioner's axe. --Adapted from publisher's description.
