Though not the caliber of the usual Alison Weir novel this is still a good read. It delves into the life of the little known Lady Jane Grey who was the Queen of England during a very short period between Edward VI and Queen Mary. As this is a novel I would guess that most of Lady Jane's story is pure speculation since she is not a very well known character in history. Jane's story is a sad one. I enjoyed reading about Jane's struggles as a mere puppet of her parents and the Protestants that wanted to control England.
