Frances Devereux has beauty, glamour, a powerful family - and not a friend in the world. Anne Taylor has wit, talent and ambition - but no way into the court she longs to enter. When these two very different women meet in strange circumstances, a friendship quickly sparks and catches. Following at Frankie's heels, Anne crosses into a world beyond her imagination: a court where a foreign king is a stranger to his own subjects, where ancient families vie for power, and where a favourite of the king may rise and rise - so long as he remains in favour. Anne and Frankie are an even match for this glittering hunting ground. But as Frankie's situation grows dangerous, and Anne's precarious, the women are driven to a series of desperate acts. What price ambition, and talent, and self-creation, at the cost of total destruction?
