Description
"1939. As the wife of the King George VI and the mother of the future queen, Elizabeth, the queen mother--shows a warm, smiling face to the world. But it's no surprise that Hitler himself calls her the 'most dangerous woman in Europe.' For behind that soft voice and kindly demeanor is a will of steel ... Elizabeth holds many powerful cards, she's also hiding damaging secrets about her past and her provenance that could prove to be her undoing. In this ... novel of royal secrets and intrigue, Karen Harper lifts the veil on one of the world's most fascinating families, and how its 'secret weapon' of a matriarch maneuvered her way through one of the most dangerous chapters of the century"--Publisher marketing.
