Kitty Tylney is just an ordinary unwed teenager in Tudor England, stuck as a lady-in-waiting to an uptight duchess, until her charismatic but manipulative best friend Catherine Howard worms her way into King Henry VIII’s heart. When Cat becomes Queen, she brings Kitty to Court to be her right-hand woman. Courtly life is incredibly glamorous, filled with fabulous gowns, sparkling jewels, and elegant parties to wear them to. Thrust into this glittering lifestyle, Kitty goes from the girl nobody noticed to being caught between two men—the object of her affection and the object of her desire. But Court is also full of secrets, lies, and sordid affairs, and any word spoken (or left unspoken) can ruin a life. As Kitty witnesses Cat’s meteoric rise and fall as Queen, she must figure out how to keep being a good friend—and an honest person—when the price of telling the truth could literally be her head.
