The King's Witch by Tracy Borman

The debut novel from celebrated historian Tracy Borman, author of The Private Lives of the Tudors.
The adventures of her courageous heroine put flesh on the bones of a fascinating historical framework * Sunday Mirror *
Tracy Borman's debut historical novel has it all: conspiracy, betrayal, dark intrigues, bloody deeds, a poignant love story - and the most famous plot in English history. -- Alison Weir, author of the Six Tudor Queens series
An accomplished novel with a vivid historical setting . . . the scenes in which Frances defends herself accusations of witchcraft are particularly strong * The Times *
Exquisitely written, sumptuous in detail and thrillingly plotted . . . The first of what promises to be a magnificent trilogy. -- Kate Williams, broadcaster and author of Becoming Queen
The King's Witch is a superbly crafted story, and so great is Tracy Borman's skill that she really transported me back to the tumultuous days of the Jacobean court . . . I was both totally submerged and desperate for it not to end!' -- Nicola Tallis, author of Elizabeth's Rival: The Tumultuous Tale of Lettice Knollys, Countess of Leicester
A compelling tale of corruption, danger and coruscating suspicion, The King's Witch carries the reader right to the heart of James I's court - and casts a dazzling new light onto one of the most dramatic moments in British history.' -- Sarah Gristwood
Plunging the reader into the claustrophobic and corrupt world of the court, the sometimes grisly period detail is brilliant . . . First rate fiction - and best of all, the first in a trilogy! * The People *
A bewitching tale * Radio Times *
An accomplished novel with a vivid historical setting * The Times *
