The Murder of Edward VIThe Murder of Edward VI by David Snow
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1559 Sir Richard Barton, third Earl of Sussex (a fictional character) has been imprisoned in the Tower by Queen Mary 1, or Bloody Mary. During the reign of Elizabeth 1, he is visited by William Cecil. Cecil wants to hear Barton tell his story of why he was imprisoned, to determine whether there is any truth behind the story. Barton begins his tale from the reign of Henry and his failure to sure a son.
An interesting fictional historical story.
An ARC was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
