Teaser Tuesday (14 September)

I would never be so impertinent as to give the Lady Elizabeth only two sentences -- even if it is Teaser Tuesday.

What of Elizabeth then? She is a dark horse, and I do not trust her. She rarely comes to court, and when she does visit the King, she appears meek and pious, but I am not fooled. Beneath that dutiful mask, I have no doubt, lies a devious and dangerous character. I would not like to tangle with Elizabeth.

Innocent Traitor, p. 243. John Dudley, musing on which princess of the blood royal might best suit his designs.

    I read this book a couple of years ago and liked it, but the multiple viewpoints were a bit much in my opinion.

    You can find my teaser here this week.

    I'm not typically a fan of historical fiction, but there is something about this teaser that makes me really intreged to read more of this story.

    Interesting teaser! That Tudor court was a real minefield - especially for the young women. Makes for some great reading, though.
