The authors of the New York Times bestseller My Lady Jane return with the courtly tale of Mary, Queen of Scots.
Mary is the jewel of the French court. Except when she’s a mouse. Yes, Mary is an Eðian (shapeshifter) in a kingdom where Verities rule. It’s a secret that could cost her a head.
Luckily, Mary has a confidant in her betrothed, Francis. But things at court take a treacherous turn after the king meets a suspicious end. Thrust onto the throne, Mary and Francis face a viper’s nest of conspiracies and treason. And if Mary’s secret is revealed, heads are bound to roll.
