A very close up look at the end of Anne Boleyn's life and (high praise to Caroline Angus for calling it what it was) murder.

Angus carefully combs through all available evidence about the last few months of Anne Boleyn's life - while also pointing out the parts missing from the record due to deliberate destruction - and makes it clear that this was ALL Henry's idea - he wanted her gone, so Cromwell got her gone. Cromwell may have done all the grunt work, but it was very much at henry's bidding. Also, Anne was 100% innocent, and at the time everyone, even her enemies, said so.

Angus meticulously delves into the intricate plot to assassinate Anne Boleyn, shedding light on the political machinations and personal rivalries of Tudor England. The book combines detailed historical research with a gripping narrative, offering readers both a compelling story and insightful analysis. Angus's engaging writing and thorough investigation make this a fascinating read for anyone interested in the darker corners of history and the dramatic power struggles of the era.

I want to thank Netgalley and the author for gifting me the ebook. I was so excited to be gifted this book! It was such a good read. The author did a great job and brought up some interesting points and did a great job with her research. Highly recommend for all Tudor history lovers.

This was really informative! I don’t think it provides any additional or previously undiscovered information but it’s a good length and an interesting enough read.
