Philippa Gregory was an established historian and writer when she discovered her interest in the Tudor period and wrote the novel The Other Boleyn Girl which was made into a TV drama, and a major film. Now, six novels later, she is looking at the family that preceded the Tudors: the magnificent Plantaganets, a family of complex rivalries, loves, and hatreds. She lives with her family on a small farm in Yorkshire where she keeps horses, hens and ducks. Alix is a founding member of the Fitzrovia Radio Hour and has performed with the comedy group in theatres across the UK, including at Shakespeare’s Globe. Also a prolific voice artist, she has narrated a number of audiobooks including Victoire, Three Daughters of Eve, Butterfly on the Storm and In Defence of Witches, and performs in several video games including Pillars of the Earth, Q.U.B.E. 2, Year of Rain and Ravenbound. Alix’s voice work can also be heard in the feature film The Pod Generation, starring Emilia Clarke.
'Fiendishly plotted ... this is Gregory at her most chillingly convincing.' -- Cosmopolitan 'This brilliant psychological chiller ... is utterly, nail-nibblingly plausible. You will relish its explosive climax and be gripped through to its final, superb, double-twist finish.' -- Daily Mail 'Insidiously gripping.' -- The Independent
