Praise for Philppa Gregory:
'Gregory's research is impeccable which makes her imaginative fiction all the more convincing' Daily Mail

'Subtle and exciting' Daily Express
'Written from instinct, not out of calculation, and it shows'
Peter Ackroyd, The Times
'For sheer pace and percussive drama it will take a lot of beating' Sunday Times
