Review: Exciting, on the edge of your chair history. This is by far the best depicition of the unholy reign of terror during the realm of Queen Mary of England (1553). Blending fascinating fact and fiction,the author creates a tale of dangerous friendships and betrayals. A young girl,in love,is caught up in the fate of the various historical figures.

Summary: exciting historical fiction with some romance mixed in
Review: This particular book does not really fit into a specific genre. It contains many of the elements of a romance, and yet, the adventure and in-depth historical background makes into historical fiction. I hope to see more books by Ms. Kyle in the future.
