The Virgin's Daughter: A Tudor Legacy Novel

The Virgin's Daughter: A Tudor Legacy Novel

Perfect for fans of Philippa Gregory and Alison Weir, The Virginâ€™s Daughter is the first book in a captivating new saga about the next generation of Tudor royals, which poses the thrilling question: What if Elizabeth I, the celebrated Virgin Queen, gave birth to a legitimate heir?
Â
Since the death of her brother, William, Elizabeth I has ruled England. Sheâ€™s made the necessary alliances, married Philip of Spain, and produced a successor: her only daughter, Anne Isabella, Princess of Wales. Elizabeth knows that her beloved Anabel will be a political pawn across Europe unless she can convince Philip to grant her a divorce, freeing him to remarry and give Spain its own heir. But the enemies of England have even greater plans for the princess, a plot that will put Anabelâ€™s very life and the security of the nation in peril. Only those closest to Elizabethâ€”her longtime confidante Minuette, her advisor and friend Dominic, and the coupleâ€™sÂ grown childrenâ€”can be trusted to carry forth a most delicate and dangerous mission. Yet, all of the queenâ€™s maneuverings may ultimately prove her undoing.

Praise for The Virginâ€™s Daughter

[The Virginâ€™s Daughter] balances action and plot with emotion and character development. . . . One of the best things about alternative history is that you donâ€™t know what will happen next, and Andersen takes full advantage of that fact.â€â€”The Roanoke Times
