Yes! I have finally delved into another book and it is so good! Innocent Traitor is a historical fiction novel about the life of Jane Grey (for those who know their Tudor history, she was the infamous Nine Day Queen). Here is the summary from the book:
The child of a scheming father and a ruthless mother, Lady Jane Grey is born during the harrowingly turbulent period that will see the demise of her famous great-uncle, King Henry VIII. Vexed by not having a male heir, Jane's abusive parents conive to use their intelligent, dutiful young daughter as a pawn in a dangerous dynastic game. But when the premature death of Jane's adolescent cousin-and Henry's successor-King Edward VI thwarts their original ploy, Jane unwittingly finds herself at the center of the struggle for supremacy. And though she has no ambitions to rule, preferring to immerse herself in books and religion, she is foreced to accept the crown, and by so doing sets off a firestorm of intrigue, betrayal, and tragedy.
For those of you who have read Philippa Gregory, and loved her works, you will really enjoy this one by Alison Weir.
