Con este libro, Jean Plaidy da termino a su extraordinaria trilogia sobre los Reyes Catolicos que inicio con Castilla para Isabel y continuo con Espana para sus soberanos. Aqui narra los ultimos anos del reinado de Isabel. Es entonces cuando la desgracia golpea sin piedad la casa real, y la gente empieza a preguntarse si no sera una maldicion que se cierne sobre los reyes y su descendencia. Alli estan sus hijas: Isabel, la viuda tragica; Juana, cuya locura parece aumentar con las infidelidades de su atractivo marido; la suave Maria y, por fin, Catalina, que debe abandonar todo lo que ama, a su familia y a Espana, para convertirse en Catalina de Aragon, reina de Inglaterra y primera esposa del fascinante Enrique VIII. / The final years of Queen Isabella's rule are consumed by dealing with (and caring for) her troubled daughters: Isabella, the tragic widow; Joan, whose madness increases with her husband's every infidelity; soft-spoken Mary; and Catherine, who abandons everything she loves to become Catherine of Aragon, Queen of England, and wife of Henry VIII.
