Richard III and the Princes in the Tower - Softcover
Includes a new foreword by the author
The story of the death, in sinister circumstances, of the boy-king Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York, is one of the most fascinating murder mysteries in English history. It is a tale with profound moral and social consequences, rich in drama, intrigue, treason, scandal and violence.
In this gripping book Alison Weir re-examines all the evidence - including that against the Princes' uncle, Richard III, whose body was recently discovered beneath a Leicester car park. She brilliantly reconstructs the whole chain of events leading to their murder and reveals how, why and by whose order they died.

"Readers of this book will care as much about two small boys foully done to death as the identity of their murderer... A deeply researched reappraisal" (Ruth Rendell Daily Telegraph)
