THE SHADOW PRINCE
Fiction (Novel) 355 pages
Macmillan - January 5, 2012
Widowed by the age of seven, isolated from the world at nine, and, as far as the world knows, murdered at twelve. So begins the extraordinary life of Richard Grey, heir to the throne of England and last in the line of Plantagenets. Unbeknownst to a world believing him dead, young Richard is smuggled out of England for his own safety and raised in Belgium as Perkin Warbeck, a normal citizen unaware of his royal lineage. But fate intervenes and Perkin soon finds himself a witness to history, sailing with Columbus to Africa, seeing the New World and walking among the elite and the riff raff of 15th Century Europe. But his identity cannot be kept a secret forever and when the truth is revealed, much to the chagrin of Tudor England, Richard faces his greatest adventure of all: reclaiming his name and the kingdom that is rightly his.

In fifteenth century Bruges, master painter Hans Memling is about to find himself at the heart of a political storm that stretches from his home city to Plantagenet England. When Hans agrees to play host to two exiles on the run from their enemies in London, he has no idea that they are not the modest traders they appear to be. Meanwhile, he has come into contact with the powerful Duke of Burgundy. Over the coming years he will grow increasingly close to the duke's beautiful daughter, the princess Marie, painting her portrait obsessively. In 1482, Hans takes up an invitation to visit his English friends, who have returned to London following their exile. There he not only find himself caught up in the dramatic final stages of the Wars of the Roses, but also plays a crucial role in the fate of the 'Princes in the Tower'.
