Event Details

Meet author Elizabeth St. John and hear about her new book, The Godmother's Secret. Inspired by England’s most enduring historical mystery, the disappearance of the Princes in the Tower, this novel tells the story of Elysabeth St.John Scrope, godmother to the eldest prince, Edward V.

Desperate to protect her godson, Elysabeth battles the intrigue, betrayal and power of the last medieval court, defying her Yorkist husband and her Lancastrian sister under her godmother’s sacred oath to keep Prince Edward safe. Bound by blood and rent by honour, Elysabeth is torn between Richard III and Henry Tudor, knowing that if her loyalty is questioned, she is in peril of losing everything—including her life.

Copies will be available for purchase and signing, but no purchase is necessary to attend this free event.
