The Dark Queen

Post by Petra Antwick »

Hello fellow readers,
In this romantic historical fiction, Susan Carroll puts a new twist on Catherine de Medici and the events at Bartholomew. She offers the viewpoint of power being used either to heal or to hurt. It is the holder of magic who decides what to do with it, not the magic itself. Carroll also taps into the reasons why dating couples keep secrets from one another, with an overarching message of avoiding judgment before one knows the whole story.
