About The Book
On February 8th, 1587, a woman of forty-four, regal, elegant, but no longer beautiful, knelt to lay her head upon a block. At the third stroke of the axe the order signed by Queen Elizabeth I of England was carried out, and the turbulent life of Mary, Queen of Scots was ended. — “Immortal Queen” tells the story of that life, from Mary’s childhood days in France to her death at Fotheringay. The narrative is in the highest tradition of historical fiction — vivid, alive, and rich in pageantry. From the first page the reader is lost in a world of nearly four centuries ago, a world of drama and torturous intrigue, of treachery and high courage. Mary, a widow and a queen at the age of eighteen, dies as courageously as she had lived; and Bothwell, that lion of a man who perished a madman in a Danish prison, more that matches her in courage — and is the one man she could trust among many who would betray her and plot her downfall. All spring to life in this enthralling, unforgettable book.
