Anne Kersten

Henry VI of the House of Lancaster is driven out by Edward IV of York. His wife Margaret flees to the French court, where she tries to persuade Louis XI to take up arms against England. Edward, who makes the unequal Lady Grey his queen, is defeated and Henry is reinstated as king. Edward then flees from captivity. Together with his younger brother and Richard of Gloucester – later Richard III – he defeats Henry's army, whose only son is stabbed to death by Richard of Gloucester. Henry VI dies by the same hand. Margaret, his widow, curses the House of York.

A lot has happened in Cecily Harrington's life. The young woman has not only won 10,000 pounds in the lottery, but has also unceremoniously dumped her fiancé Nigel after falling head over heels in love with Bruce Lovell. But after their wedding, when they retire to a remote country house, the likeable globetrotter changes visibly. Eventually, she even begins to suspect that her husband may have a terrible secret: Is he the wife-killer who is being searched for around the globe and who poisons his wives and buries them in the cellar?
