Notes
Remembered as the "Nine Days Queen", Lady Jane Grey has become the stuff of legend and an icon of innocence and a devout protestant, determined to fight for her crown and her faith. Growing up in Jane's shadow, the other Grey sisters, Katherine and Mary, would have to tread carefully to survive. Potential rivals to the Tudor monarchs, they both fell passionately in love, married in secret - and incurred the fury and punishment of Elizabeth I. Exploding the myths of their lives and telling their story as never before, Leanda de Lisle brings the Grey sisters' tumultuous world vividly to life: a time when a royal marriage could gain you a kingdom, or cost you everything.
