Beautiful beyond belief, with unique silver-grey hair, she had once known joy of a marriage based on loveonly to see it snatched away on the battlefield. Hardened and changed by grief, Elizabeth became the tool of her evil ambitious motherthe witch, Jaquetta of Bedfordwho was determined that her daughter should sit on the throne of England. By trickery, deception, and witchcraft, Jaquetta's wish was fulfilled. But even a witch could not have known the tragedy which lay in store for the King's grey mare.
