Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"I had been born Henry VIII's most precious jewel, the country's future, and the Tudor dynasty's salvation. My birth had marked my father's most joyous success after decades of failures. But now, there was only dying left for me to do.As to what would have happened had I endured, it no longer mattered.And as to whether I would have done my duty...well, I guess we will never know. Because I never got to live."As son to Henry VIII by his third wife, Jane Seymour, young Edward is rushed into adulthood and kingship when his father suddenly dies.At the age of just nine-years-old however, King Edward VI cannot rule on his own, and many who had sworn fealty to him begin to work in secret to attain their own political goals.But, unbeknownst to the rest of the world, Edward has his own secret - one he must never allow to come to light.
