Description

A captivating historical narrative around Katharine Howard's rise as the fifth wife of King Henry VIII. Amidst the treacherous intrigues of the Tudor court, Katharine navigates the shifting allegiances and political machinations surrounding the throne. Her journey is one of ambition, love, and peril, as Ford vividly portrays the tension between personal integrity and the dangerous allure of power in a volatile era.
