Publisher's Synopsis
Elizabeth, daughter of James I, is surrounded by luxury in her father's volatile court, but can rely on no one but her beloved brother Henry, Prince of Wales - until she is given a slave girl, Tallie. Now she has someone who will tell her the truth. The truth is far from comfortable. King James is distrusted by all but sees himself as a grand peacemaker and invites a series of suitors for his daughter. Brutally robbed of Henry's support, how can Elizabeth forge her own future?
