Borman is in complete command of the vast source material...Masterful, and hugely impressive, this is one Tudor book you must not miss!' Alison Weir'Tracy Borman introduces us to a new character in Anne Boleyn's story: Hever Castle itself. Amidst the comings and goings inside the castle walls we witness Anne's meteoric rise and terrifying fall, while also sharing in the trials and triumphs of a compelling cast of characters. Beautifully written, Borman turns a familiar story on its head and takes you deep into the Tudor world. This is historical fiction at its best' Elizabeth Norton'Think you know the story of the Boleyns? Think again. With an expert eye for detail and beautiful characterisation, Tracy Borman takes her readers on an epic journey back in time to the surroundings of the tranquil Hever Castle. There's nothing tranquil about this story, though, which is full of the backbiting, power struggles and devastating heartbreak at the core of the Boleyn family's rise and fall. Deliciously scandalous and breathtakingly brilliant, if you buy one book this spring, make it The House of Boleyn.' Nicola TallisThe House of BoleynHEVER CASTLE HOLDS ALL THE BOLEYN SECRETS ...When nobleman Thomas Boleyn, lord of Hever Castle, is called to London in 1509 to present himself to a newly anointed King Henry VIII, he sets in train events that ensure the Boleyn name will never be forgotten.Years later, as Henry VIII relentlessly pursues Thomas' daughter Anne Boleyn to be his queen, Hever Castle becomes her escape, a place where her trusted attendants and her father must advise, protect and support her. Lavish gifts are sent by the King and the Boleyn family is given ever greater prominence at court, their glory shining over everything and everyone. Until ambition turns the family on itself, enemies outside the castle circle closer and danger begins to stalk the corridors of Hever. And as Henry's gaze moves elsewhere when Anne cannot give him the heir he so desperately seeks, the family faces a terrible, bloody fate.But as long as Hever still stands, hope still exists.Combining drama, danger and passion, Tracy Borman brings the Boleyn family's three-decade rise and precipitous fall to vivid life using their world at Hever, family and servants alike, as never written before. The result is a powerful and emotional novel of family, fate and history.Tracy BormanTRACY BORMAN OBE is Chief Historian at the Historic Royal Palaces.
