Description
Escorting Lady Jane Grey from throne room into imprisonment is Elizabeth Tilney, who surprised even herself by volunteering for the job. Anyway, it won't be for long, which is a good thing because the two sixteen-year-olds couldn't be less compatible. As Jane's captivity extends into the increasingly turbulent last months of 1553, the two girls learn to live with each other, but Elizabeth finds herself drawn into the difficult relationship between the newlyweds. And when, at the turn of the year, events take an unexpected and dangerous direction, her newfound loyalties are put to the test.
