Why these tropes fit
The novel follows Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Jane Rochford as Henry VIII’s new marriage and the Boleyn legacy draw them into a precarious Tudor court. Anne’s political marriage contrasts with Katherine’s attraction to Henry, while Jane’s testimony has led to the deaths of George and Anne Boleyn; the women navigate power, deceit, betrayal, and terror.
