I think the changing narrations between Kate and Harry also added to this effect and I loved it. One chapter I am living this person and wanting them to succeed and the next chapter I am wishing them dead. I’m not talking about keeping all the details straight (which, hello, is ridiculous to attempt during a cousin’s war) but oh my emotions, I couldn’t keep them in check. I don’t know about you, but for me this is a very confusing time period. I loved reading about the excitement that unfolded from the point-of-view of Harry Stafford, the person who betrayed a king but about whom little is actually known, as well as the perspective of his wife Kate Woodville who was the sister of the queen and to who history has not been the most kind.
Let me just say that when you take the drama of the War of the Roses and the fascinating, easy story-telling of Susan Higginbotham, you can’t go wrong. The Stolen Crown: The Secret Marriage that Forever Changed the Fate of England
