Katheryn, The Wanton Queen

Maureen Peters

4.9/5 (29789 ratings)

Description:Destined to meet a tragic end… Born into a noble but dysfunctional family, Lady Katheryn Howard’s childhood is left largely in the care of her grandmother. Unfortunately, her grandmother is more impressed by the glitter of the English Court than she is concerned for the well-being of her grandchild. With her grandmother away much of the time, Katheryn is left vulnerable. While many in the household care for her, not all have her best interests at heart, and as Katheryn grows into a beautiful young woman, the lack of a guiding hand begins to show. Then, of course, there are the men. Henry Manox, the musician who seeks to initiate her into the ways of love. Francis Derham, the dashing courtier of uncertain background. Thomas Culpepper, her kinsman, who adores her. And of course, there is King Henry VIII, whom she marries. Yet when Katheryn Howard becomes Queen of England, her future and her fate are far from settled. Indeed, the gossip and intrigue that surround her — and the constant whispers about her past — become more and more acute. She draws potential gossipers into her circle to silence them. But the whispers and the tales will not be stopped. When the gossip surrounding Katheryn is taken to the ears of King Henry VIII, the wheels of political revenge inevitably begin to turn. Despite his avowed love for the Queen, Henry knows that he has no choice but to act decisively. And thus the young, beautiful Queen must step forward and face her tragic fate. Katheryn, The Wanton Queen is the heartfelt tale of Henry VIII’s fifth wife. Maureen Peters was born in Caernarvon, North Wales. She was educated at grammar school and attended the University College of North Wales, Bangor, where she obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree and a diploma of Education. She taught disabled children before taking up writing under her own name and many pseudonyms. Peters has produced many books and contributed short stories to many magazines and her writing normally focuses on royalty, the War of the Roses and the Tudor period. Apart from biographical fiction on royalty she also wrote Gothic romances, family sagas, Mills & Boon series titles and contemporary mysteries.
