Description

1567, Scotland: no place for a woman. Mary, Queen of Scots, is forced to abdicate in favour of her infant son.

She can rely only on the loyalty of her ladies-in-waiting, chiefly Marie Seton.

Meanwhile the political turmoil in the country is mirrored behind the walls of beautiful Fyvie Castle.

Lilias’s marriage to Marie’s nephew, the ruthlessly ambitious Alexander Seton, goes awry after the birth of yet another daughter.

He blames her, and contemplates drastic action. To what lengths will a man go to secure a son and heir?

The Green Lady is a shocking tale of intrigue, secrets, treachery and murder, based on true events, but seen from a different perspective than is found in most history books.

Casting a fascinating light on the ruthless nature of power, the story highlights the precarious position of sixteenth-century women, even those in the most privileged of circumstances.
