Anne of Cleves is remembered as being the woman who Henry rejected as being the 'Flanders Mare'. This book portrays her as an intelligent and vivacious woman who was able to navigate her way through the deadly Tudor Court. It brings Anne to life as a woman in her own right, as well as some having some interesting theories on how Anne lived.

This one took me a while but it was a great read. Alison Weir’s theory about Anne of Cleves in this book hasn’t been explored much and made for an intriguing story.
