She survived the execution. Now comes the harder part. Lady Anne Tyrell thought she understood the rules of Henry VII's Tudor court. She was wrong. With her husband's head on the block for treason and her children carrying the blood of a rival royal line, Anne's position has never been more desperate or more dangerous. The king does not forget. He does not forgive. And he has sent his most formidable enforcer to ensure that the Tyrell name poses no further threat to the Tudor throne.
Sir Thomas Lovell is everything a king could want in an instrument of power: brilliant, relentless, and utterly loyal. He is also the man Anne Tyrell once loved and lost long before the world turned against her. A tournament. A conspiracy. A deadly game with no rules. When the nobility of England converges on the Welsh Marches for a magnificent jousting tournament, Anne finds herself in a gilded cage alive with whispers.
Behind the pageantry of banners and feasting lie secret debts, festering rivalries, and men who have never stopped dreaming of a Yorkist restoration. Then a mysterious death shatters the celebration and Anne realizes the tournament was never about sport at all. Someone is moving the pieces of a very old game. And Anne, her children, and her complicated history with Sir Thomas Lovell have landed directly in the center of the board.
A heroine who will fight with every weapon she has, including the truth. To survive, Anne must unravel a conspiracy that reaches to the heart of Tudor power, outmaneuver lords who have played this game for decades, and decide once and for all whether the man from her past is her greatest weapon ... or her most elegant trap.
