Frances – Tudor Countess
The Elizabethan Series
by Tony Riches
“A thrilling portrait of a remarkable woman who witnessed the key events of Elizabethan England.”
Frances Walsingham is the only surviving child of Queen Elizabeth’s ‘spymaster’ Sir Francis Walsingham. Better educated than most men, her father arranges her marriage to warrior poet Sir Philip Sidney.
After Philip Sidney is killed in battle, Frances becomes Countess of Essex, and is banished from court after her husband Sir Robert Devereaux’s rebellion against the queen.
Can she marry for love, if it means turning her back on her faith and all she knows?
Based on extensive historical research, this is the hidden story of Frances, Countess of Essex and Clanricarde.
This title is available to read on #KindleUnlimited.
Soon also available as an audiobook!

I do enjoy a good Tudor book. I have never heard of Frances Walsingham before, so I am looking forward to becoming acquainted with her!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I hope you'll enjoy the book. I love stories about more obscure women in history. Great to see them come to life.
