The recently widowed Henry VIII, getting ready to get married again, decides to marry the German princess Anne of Cleves, whom he had never seen before. Anna, who has neither beauty nor other feminine virtues, does not evoke ardent feelings in the loving king, but, guided by state interests, he still marries her. Soon the attention of Henry VIII is attracted by one of Anne's ladies-in-waiting, and the king begins to look for a reason for divorce. To top it all off, the lonely queen, unrecognized by the court, must hide secrets that could cost her her life. Will the king accuse Anne of adultery, like poor Anne Boleyn? Or will he be sent home in disgrace? “Queen of Secrets. A Novel about Anne of Cleves" is the fourth book by the popular author and famous historian Alison Ware, who decided to create a dramatic series dedicated to the six wives of King Henry VIII. For the first time in Russian!
