THE KING'S MOTHER TRILOGY
An incredibly gripping story of Lady Elfrida, England’s First Crowned Queen
The King’s Mother is the incredibly gripping story of Saxon England's first crowned queen who's been censured by history as a whore and a murderer but was neither.
The widowed Lady Elfrida has achieved the impossible in tenth-century England. She’s ensured her twelve-year-old son has become king, despite the gruesome murder of his predecessor and half-brother, Edward. While many blame the king’s mother for the boy's death, she looks to two rival noblemen as the real perpetrators.
Even with the reappearance of an unwelcome enemy on England’s shores, Viking warriors, who attack and threaten the safety and security of England, and specifically, the young king, the two noblemen are far from resigned to Lady Elfrida’s power.
As her son takes the final steps to become king in actions and name, she’s increasingly isolated by the deaths of allies and the scheming ways of others, including the king. Resentful of her continuing influence, Lady Elfrida faces banishment from the royal court with fierce determination and acquiescence.
