I'm delighted to be spotlighting "Frances - Tudor Countess" on the blog today!
The fifth book in Tony Riches' Elizabethan Series, and based on extensive research, original letters and records of the Elizabethan Court, this new account explores the life of Frances Walsingham, the only surviving child of Queen Elizabeth's 'spymaster' Sir Francis Walsingham. Better educated than most men, her father arranges her marriage to warrior poet Sir Philip Sidney. After Philip is killed in battle, Frances becomes Countess of Essex, and is banished from court after her husband Sir Robert Devereaux's rebellion against the queen. Can she marry for love, it it means turning her back on her faith and all she knows?
The story which began with the Tudor Trilogy follows Frances, Countess of Essex and Clanricarde, from her first days at the Elizabethan Court to the end of the Tudor dynasty and the rise of the Stuarts.
