A Dangerous Inheritance

Cover A Dangerous Inheritance
Authors:
Genres: Fiction
Baynard’s Castle, London; Sheen Priory, Surrey Against all the odds, it seems, the Lady Mary has eluded capture. In many shires men are arming in her favor, not only Catholics but also Protestants, loyal to King Harry’s daughter. The only heartening piece of news is of a rising against her in Cambridge, yet we hear no more of that.
“Northumberland must act now if victory is to be ours,” Harry says.
But Northumberland remains in London.
“He dare not leave yet,” says Pembroke grimly, on one of hi
...s rare visits home. “He does not have enough men, and is doing his utmost to recruit them. He has drafted a letter for Queen Jane to send to the lord lieutenants of the counties, commanding them to do all in their power to defend her just title.” His tone is slightly ironic, as if to imply that her title might be anything but just.
I turn my head away. I have nothing to say to my father-in-law. I hate him. But in a few days, God willing, he may have to come craving my forgiveness.
