Three Sisters, Three Queens (Collector's Edition)

Power and love are rarely compatible, while truth and death are never far apart.

In the sweltering summer of 1503, Margaret Tudor married the King of Scotland in a lavish ceremony. Marriage and a coronation brought the Tudor princess both happiness and power.

She was quite pleased with the match: she had married a mature monarch, while Catherine, who had married her brother Arthur, was merely a queen consort.

But thousands of miles from home and without company, she could only confide in Catherine and her sister Mary, who had married into the French royal family, through an endless exchange of letters. The three noblewomen loved one another like sisters, yet jealousy also lay beneath their sharp exchanges. They had no say in their futures: bearing a precious heir was the very purpose of being a queen.

As schemes and the lust for power tear their bonds apart, what choices will they ultimately make?

Three Sisters, Three Queens focuses on the three women in Henry VIII's life: his two sisters and his first queen. Margaret and Mary married into the royal families of Scotland and France, while Catherine, who became his queen, came from Spain.

Whoever bore a son first might become the mother of the Tudor heir. The three women's feelings were bound together, yet beneath the surface, turbulent currents were stirring...
