The Confession of Richard Plantagenet

England, 1471.

The War of the Roses is raging and Richard Plantagenet must stand fast to support for the Yorkist throne.

In pursuit of crushing of the Duke of Warwickâ€™s rebellion, Edward IV and Richard stand side by side with their brother George once more, despite his earlier switch in allegiance.

Following Warwickâ€™s defeat, Richard meets his daughter, Anne, but as his standing increases and their relationship blossoms, his own family begins to falter.

Georgeâ€™s dance with treachery resurfaces, and Edward grows frail with illness; Richard ends up in a position he did not expect, nor wish, to be in.

Although made Lord Protector for his nephews, forces outside Richardâ€™s control threaten to throw everything into jeopardy, and battle lines begin to be drawn as intrigues take over.

Will Richard survive this turbulent time?

Will he be able to make his own decisions or will those around him force his hand?

Written in Plantagenet blood and rich with period detail, this is an arresting and complex tale of family and friendship, politics and betrayal, and love and loss.

Traditionally portrayed as one of the great villains of British history, â€˜The Confession of Richard Plantagenetâ€™ is a sympathetic novel of the last king of the House of York.

Set against the tumultuous second half of the Wars of the Roses, fact is seamlessly woven with fiction as the heroic Richard III is revealed.
