Praise for Anne O’Brien
{"strong"=>["‘O’Brien cleverly intertwines the personal and political in this enjoyable, gripping tale.’
-The Times", " Her path to the throne is paved with treason… 1330. “], “br”=>[nil]}
Philippa of Hainault may be married to King Edward III but she’s penniless and powerless. England quivers in the clutches of the Dowager Queen Isabella and her darkly ambitious lover Lord Mortimer while her husband rots in jail, a prisoner at Mortimer’s hand. It will take a courageous young man to emerge from the shadows and rise up against this formidable pair.
Philippa won’t sit back and see Edward puppeteered. She is determined to see justice done. It’s her words whispered into the young King Edward’s ear that will see the battle for England’s throne commence.
‘O’Brien cleverly intertwines the personal and political in this enjoyable, gripping tale.’

    My father’s crown is mine, whatever the circumstances of its passing to me – and now I have my son to consider. I have a dynasty to create.
