Courtly Intrigue and Whispers as Weapons with Historical Fiction Queen Philippa Gregory
Philippa Gregory returns to the infamous Tudor Court in her new novel Boleyn Traitor. Jane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor Court, where secrets are currency, every choice is dangerous, and even the faintest whisper can seal the fate of queens. For Jane, survival demands playing every role required of her: a loving wife who conceals her doubts, a devoted sister to Anne Boleyn at the height of her power, and an obedient spy who carefully wields her words. But in a court ruled by ambition and a tyrant’s sword, Jane must rely on her sharp wit and skillful maneuvering to outthink those around her, knowing that one wrong move could cost her everything.
Dr. Philippa Gregory is one of the world’s foremost historical novelists and has written many bestselling novels, including The Other Boleyn Girl and The White Queen. She studied history at the University of Sussex and was awarded a PhD by the University of Edinburgh. In 2021, she was awarded a CBE for services to literature and was elected as a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society.
