Penelope – Tudor Baroness by Tony Riches
Discover the life of an Elizabethan woman who dares to defy the queen and risks everything for the man she loves. Penelope is beautiful, talented and well educated, but her story is a one of survival against the odds. Her father died of suspected poisoning in Ireland, and her mother was banished from court for secretly marrying the queen’s favourite, Robert Dudley. Her brother, the Earl of Essex, accused her of encouraging his ill-fated rebellion, yet Penelope outlives the end of the Tudors with the death of Queen Elizabeth and becomes a lady-in-waiting to the new queen, Anne of Denmark.
