Gordon, a beautiful Scotswoman who unknowingly married a pretender to the British
throne—while harboring a powerful secret of her own.
One of British history’s most tragic stories is the sad fate of two young princes, brothers aged
nine and twelve, who were locked in the Tower of London by their ambitious uncle, Richard, in
1483. Having disposed of these royal rivals, Richard then stole the throne. The boys were never
seen again.
But a dozen years after the boys’ disappearance, a young man named Perkin Warbeck
appears, claiming to be one of the missing brothers and therefore the rightful heir to the
throne. He soon finds popular support in Scotland, where he also falls in love with Lady
Katherine Gordon, a beautiful young Scotswoman with royal blood of her own. Perkin Warbeck
is well known to history lovers, but few know the fascinating story of his wife, Katherine.
Others call Warbeck “the Pretender,” but Katherine adores him and believes in him
wholeheartedly. She dreams that one day she will rule Britain alongside him—if he can
overthrow his uncle, King Richard, the usurper. Having gathered an army of supporters,
Warbeck invades England and proclaims himself king. Meanwhile Katherine waits, longing to be
called to London to take her place beside him as England’s rightful queen.
Katherine’s story takes her from the magnificent Highlands of Scotland to London's Tudor
court and to Wales, where she is determined at all costs to prevent anyone from discovering the
secret she keeps hidden there. Steeped in mystery, The Pretender’s Wife is an extraordinary tale
of passion, ambition, tragedy and intrigue—and of a remarkable woman torn between love and
doubt about the man she loves.©2027 Alison Weir (P)2027 Recorded Books
