FALL FROM GRACE

Richard III's reign is buried in mystery and controversy. For many, he is a monster of biblical proportions and by the end of the sixteenth century Tudor propaganda had become historical fact. To embellish the fascinating tale of the devil reborn in the guise of the Richard III, he is made to be diabolically ugly, a hunchback, born with a tail, who died a coward on the battlefield.
Defying Shakespeare's portrayal of Richard III, this well researched novel completes The Rose of York trilogy, where the last of the long line of Plantagenet kings of England stands tall once again. A stirring saga of courage, sacrifice and love.

Originally published by Metropolis Ink/End Table Books in 2007.
