THE FIRST BOOK IN THE THE COUSINS' WAR SERIES FROM INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR PHILIPPA GREGORY
One woman at the centre of England's most enduring royal mystery.
Elizabeth Woodville was an ordinary woman before her marriage to King Edward IV elevated her to the throne of England. Determined to secure the future of her family, she fought fiercely for her children and her place at court. But when her two young sons became the centre of one of history's greatest unsolved mysteries, her legacy was transformed forever.
Set amid the turmoil of the Wars of the Roses, The White Queen tells the story of Elizabeth's extraordinary rise to power and the mystery of the Princes in the Tower in a captivating family drama.
