Summary

The Curse of the Hungerfords by acclaimed historian Alison Weir is a companion piece to the captivating fourth novel in the Six Tudor Queens series, Anna of Kleve: Queen of Secrets.  

Each sunset, as I go to the chapel, I find myself looking for her. I look for details. What she is wearing, some clue to her identity. But she fades away if I look at her directly. I can just glimpse the blur of a hood, or a widow's wimple, and those sad eyes, staring at something - or someone - I cannot see. 

Anne Bassett served four of Henry VIII's queens, yet the king himself once pledged to serve her. Had fate not decreed otherwise, she might have been his wife - and queen of England.  

But now, far from court and heavy with her husband's child, Anne prays in the Hungerford chapel and awaits the ghostly figure she knows will come. This is her story, one that entwines with the fate of another Lady Hungerford from not so many years before. 

They say there's a curse on this family....

Six Tudor queens. Six novels. Six years.

V short

A good story but the last hour seems to be an intro to the Anne of cleves book. Slightly unexpected
