Can Elizabeth maintain control over her throne? And what happened to the lost Tudor heirs?

Dr Perdita Rivers and her twin sister Piper are safely hidden in Andorra. Despite their narrow escape from those pursuing them, Perdita is determined to continue her grandmother’s legacy by uncovering her ground-breaking research into the English royal bloodline.

But she soon realises that nothing about the Tudor era was as it seemed. And now the national identity of Great Britain must be called into question.

With their enemies still tracking them and the lives of those they love at deadly risk, Perdita and Piper must succeed in exposing the secrets of history or there is no hope of them escaping alive...

Hello, thank you for visiting my author page and thank you even more if you’ve bought, read or listened to one of my books. I really hope you enjoyed it.

My books are dual timeline stories featuring the lost voices of women, both real and imaginary. The Marquess House Saga reimagines the stories of the women from Henry VIII’s court through to the Civil War, telling a tale of secrets, mysteries and intrigues which ripple through into the lives of the present day characters. While, The Wind Chime, The Music Makers and The Forgotten Palace focus on the lives of Victorian women and how their stories connect to the 21st century characters.

    As I read these books I find the possibilities fascinating. How has history been changed or manipulated because of who was writing it?

    It truly makes you wonder.

    I do believe that because history has primarily been written by men, it is a perspective of possible truth.

    Alexandra Walsh takes us on quite an exploration of the possibilities.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Walsh weaves the threads of a conspiracy as historically intriguing as the Bayeaux tapestry.

    An interesting tale just waiting for any Angophile, history buff, and royal watching enthusiast. This historical fiction is brave enough to not just consider alternate history but to be a beacon of new light shed on old possibilities knowing the lengths men have gone to at any age in history to stop at nothing to achieve their ends. This is lovingly researched and thought out by certainly a new star in the period fiction literary community. I will go back and read her first book now that I have enjoyed the second so much, and am looking forward to the last in the trilogy to see how the twins fare in history, love, and their new lives. I was sold enough that I will have to go back to see what actual history was thrust upon the world about the truth of that age. Gets 5 stars from me for courage, craftsmanship, and creativity.

    The book is exciting and fast paced. I love the whole concept with hidden history in "official" history books. There is always a story within a story, within a story. Ms. Walsh does a fantastic job in her fictional work. And it does make one think what is the real reason for missing holes in history.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing and Interesting Conspiracy Theory Novel
    Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2019
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Alexandra Walsh's second novel in her Marquess House Conspiracy series is as great a read as the 1st. The first portion was a bit convoluted with all of the names and history on how each family is related; however, as you moved through the book this became less confusing. It is really interesting to think that there may be an alternative view on historical events than what we are taught. The story was well researched and pertinent information included to significant events in history to make this fictionalized version interesting. There were some glaring grammatical mistakes that were a bit annoying; but overall this didn't change my enjoyment of the book. Looking forward to book 3 in the series.

    I love reading alternative points of view of history. This series has been a great read. History is not static. It is fluid based on new evidence that is uncovered. I completely enjoyed the series. Alexander's alternate view of the Tudor monarchy is fascinating. I love that the spymaster and advisors to the queen totally discount evidence that the women uncover. Women are a force of nature that men try to discredit. I recommend this series!

    Although the book was a good read, I found the plot not feasible. There are too many documented events that do not match this one. The Elizabethan period is full of faults, but this one is too fantastic for even Elizabeth to be a part of. Her death is well documented and Lettice was a lot younger than her.
