For readers who loved The Other Boleyn Girl, as well as Tudor novels by authors like Rosalind Miles, Robin Maxwell, and Jean Plaidy. By the author of the bestselling Elizabeth I mystery series.

She survived her own innocence, and the treachery of Europe's royal courts; The Last

Boleyn is the story of the rise and fall of the Boleyns, one of England's most

powerful families, through the eyes of the eldest daughter, Mary.

Although her sister,

Anne, the queen; her brother, George, executed alongside Anne; and her father, Thomas,

are most remembered by history, Mary was the Boleyn who set into motion the chain

of events that brought about the family's meteoric rise to power, as well as the

one who managed to escape their equally remarkable fall. Sent away to France at an

extraordinarily young age, Mary is quickly plunged into the dangerous world of court

politics, where everything is beautiful but deceptive, and everyone she meets is

watching and quietly manipulating the events and people around them. As she grows

into a woman, Mary must navigate both the dangerous waters ruled by two kings and

the powerful will of her own family in order to find a place for herself and the

love she so deeply desires.
