The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn

"Twas a dangerous game to play upon a King, I knew, but I had little choice. And so it began with Henry makig his advances..."

It is 1560 and Elisabeth I, newly crowned, is given a secret diary written in the hand of her mother, Anne Boleyn. Elisabeth knew nothing of her mother except the official history: that she was an adulterer, a traitor, and deserved to die. She now learns the truth about her mother's fierce determination, her hard-won knowledge of a world ruled by ruthless men, and her deep love for the daughter taken from her shortly after her birth.

As Anne Boleyn's story unfolds, Elisabeth, a passionnate young woman at the center of power, finds in it an echo of her own drama - and makes a resolution that will change the course of history.
