A queen determined to hold power even into the grave; a Scottish king who disdains his own kingship and has predicated his life, personality, and maturity on attaining the English throne; and a nation held in suspense where the only legitimate political occupation is speculation on the Succession. Centred on the year 1603, as Queen Elizabeth lies dying - still not having chosen her successor - the story is a trip backwards and forwards in time following the tortuous relationship between Elizabeth I of England, Mary Queen of Scots and James VI of Scotland. The author has used extant letters and documents to evoke the passionate and dissembling temperament of the queen and the duplicity of her secretary, Robert Cecil.
