This masterful performance of historical fiction centers on Katharine Howard–clever, beautiful, and outspoken–who catches the jaded eye of Henry VIII and becomes his fifth Queen. Corruption and fear pervade the King's court, and the dimly lit corridors vibrate with the intrigues of unscrupulous courtiers hungry for power. Soon Katharine is locked in a vicious battle with Thomas Cromwell, the Lord Privy Seal, as she fights for political and religious change.
Ford saw the past as an integral part of the present experience and understanding, and his sharply etched vision of the court of Henry VIII, echoes aspects of Edwardian England as it explores the pervading influence of power, lies, fear, and anxiety on people's lives.
