Una contienda fratricida que terminó por separar a un país entero. Philippa Gregory se adentra en La reina blanca -una nueva trilogía que transcurre durante los años anteriores a la llegada de los Tudor- en uno de los episodios más apasionantes de la historia de la Inglaterra medieval, la Guerra de las Dos Rosas.
La reina blanca narra la historia del amor entre Elizabeth Woodville y Eduardo IV, rey de Inglaterra. Un amor que causará un gran escándalo y cambiará el destino de Inglaterra para siempre. Inglaterra está en plena Guerra de las Rosas, una contienda familiar, una batalla que enfrenta a hermanos y primos que luchan para obtener el derecho a reclamar el trono de Inglaterra. Pero el rey se ha enamorado de la preciosa viuda y se casan en secreto a las pocas semanas. Cuando el matrimonio es descubierto, Elizabeth y su familia se ven pronto en el centro de una lucha por el poder en la corte real, en la que tendrán que enfrentarse a sus enemigos tradicionales y a nuevos rivales para obtener el poder y las riquezas de Inglaterra.… (más)
