Requiem For a White Rose
(2026)(A book in the Wars of the Roses Short Stories series)
A Story by J P Reedman
Tragedy strikes the royal family. Mary, the cherished daughter of King Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville, lies cold in death, leaving behind a gaping void in the heart of her sister, Elizabeth of York. A confidante and ally, Mary was the luminous joy in Elizabeth's life—a sister whose laughter once danced through the echoing halls of the palaces where they grew up
Consumed by grief, Elizabeth is determined to honour Mary’s memory, not just with tears, but with an act of defiance. She yearns to journey with her sister's funeral procession to Windsor, but protocol and the expectations of royal duty seek to bind her. Elizabeth finds herself at a crossroads: comply with tradition or embrace a bold, unthinkable course of action.
