Queen of Diamonds
(2026)(The third book in the Anne Boleyn Chronicles series)
A novel by Rozsa Gaston
Anne Boleyn accepts a new challenge! For fans of Philippa Gregory, Elizabeth Chadwick, Carol McGrath and Anne O’Brien.
Can Anne guard her heart against those determined to take it…?
France, 1515
With the departure of her mistress, Mary Tudor, back to England, Anne Boleyn now finds herself in the service of Queen Claude of France.
Claude assigns Anne the role of companion to her younger sister, Princess Renée, and Anne soon discovers Renée is a handful — wilful and supremely aware of rank. Together, they visit King Francis’s artist-in-residence, Leonardo da Vinci, whose unconventional wisdom inspires them both.
Anne is drawn to the captivating lady-in-waiting Diane de Poitiers, who coaches her in the art of mystery and poise.
The elegant Frenchwoman is in stark contrast to Anne’s sister Mary, whose obvious coquettish ways are earning her an unsavoury reputation.
As Anne grows in confidence, she finds herself noticed by the opposite sex. However, she is aiming high, and will not succumb to a prince’s entreaties without a marriage offer.
Anne is determined to take the lead, but with the French courtiers viewing the queen’s maids as their personal playthings, will she be able to retain her honour…?
QUEEN OF DIAMONDS is a thoroughly researched, fascinating historical novel set during the 16th century in Europe. It is the third book in the Anne Boleyn Chronicles series.
‘Wonderfully detailed and entirely enjoyable. This is a young Anne in whom I absolutely believe, and who does much to explain the woman she’d become.’ — Sarah Gristwood, author of Game of Queens
