In \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eSisters of Treason\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Elizabeth Fremantle brings these young women and their perilous times to vivid life.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeither sister is well suited to a dangerous career at court. Flirtatious Lady Catherine, thought to be the true heir, cannot control her compulsion to love and be loved. Her sister, clever Lady Mary, has a crooked spine and a tiny stature in an age when physical perfection equates to goodness—and both girls have inherited the Tudor blood that is more curse than blessing. For either girl to marry without royal permission would be a potentially fatal political act. It is the royal portrait painter, Levina Teerlinc, who helps the girls survive these troubled times. She becomes their mentor and confidante, but when the Queen’s sister, the hot-headed Elizabeth Tudor, inherits the crown, life at court becomes increasingly treacherous for the surviving Grey sisters. Ultimately each young woman must decide how far she will go to defy her Queen, risk her life, and find the safety and love she longs for.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed.
