Summary
On the island kingdom of Elben, tradition dictates that the king must marry six queens and magically bind each to a palace—or risk the kingdom’s collapse. Ambitious and clever, Boleyn seeks to become Henry’s favorite queen, relishing the games of court and rivalry among the other wives. In contrast, Seymour enters the court as a reluctant spy and assassin, only to find herself trapped in a loveless marriage with the king.
When Boleyn and Seymour form an unlikely friendship and alliance, they uncover a dark secret at the heart of the island’s magic. To survive, they must unite all six rival queens against Henry’s oppressive rule—but navigating courtly deception, ambition, and forbidden desire is no easy task. This tale blends political maneuvering, magical stakes, and sapphic romance in a richly imagined Tudor-inspired court.
