Philippa Gregory can write a mean historical fiction. This one features the famous War of the Roses, also called the cousins war. As usual, Gregory has highly fictionalized the characters in the novel. There is a suggestion that Elizabeth Woodville may have believed in a water goddess. Gregory latched onto this and created a whole new mythology around her. The way this was done was definitely interesting. If you have read and liked Gregory’s books before, this one will not disappoint.
