Paperback. Condition: Good. "A tense, gripping read, sure to enthrall readers everywhere." --Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author The thrilling sequel to Widowland, a feminist dystopian novel set in an alternative history that terrifyingly imagines what a British alliance with Germany would look like if the Nazis had won WWII. London, 1955. The Leader has been dead for two years. His assassination, on British soil, provoked violent retribution and intensified repression of British citizens, particularly women. Now, more than ever, the Protectorate is a place of surveillance and isolation--a land of spies. Every evening Rose Ransom looks in the mirror and marvels that she's even alive. A mere woman, her role in the Leader's death has been miraculously overlooked. She still works at the Culture Ministry, where her work now focuses on poetry, which has been banned for its subversive meanings, emotions, and signals that cannot be controlled. A government propaganda drive to promote positive images of women has just been announced ahead of a visit from Dwight D. Eisenhower, the first American president to set foot on English soil in two decades. Queen Wallis Simpson will be spearheading the campaign, and Rose has been tasked with visiting her to explain the plan. When Rose arrives at the palace, she finds Wallis in a state of paranoia, desperate to return to America and enjoy the liberty of her homeland following her husband's death. Wallis claims she has a secret document so explosive that it will blow the Protectorate apart. But will the last queen of England pull the trigger on the Alliance? More Praise for Queen Wallis: "Chilling, compelling, and real." --Rhys Bowen, New York Times bestselling author "A propulsive, terrifying read that gripped me from start to finish." --Natalie Jenner, internationally bestselling author  "An inventive, riveting alternate history of England transformed by an alliance with fascist Germany." --Anika Scott, internationally bestselling author "A fascinating and winning follow-up to Widowland." --Eliza Knight, USA Today bestselling author "A beautiful love letter to poetry and the power of words." --Brianna Labuskes, author of The Librarian of Burned Books.…
