== Book Description ==
A novel of the early years of Elizabeth Tudor -- as told by the spirited niece of her real-life governess.

Her name is Eloise Rousell

Daughter of a well-bred lady and a strolling player, she lived her early years in peaceful obscurity. But then her father died -- and her new stepfather wanted none of her. So she was sent to her aunt, Kat Ashley -- governess to the young Elizabeth Tudor.

In the tumultuous household of the princess in exile, Eloise finds her destiny -- best friend, confidante, lady-in-waiting, and favored seamstress of the fiery girl who would become the greatest monarch of all time.

Through a decade of plots and counter-plots, tragedies and triumphs, Eloise, like her aunt, is a constant in Elizabeth's life. Risking her heart -- and her head -- in service to the cause of seeing Elizabeth on the throne, Eloise is a bright, brave, sprightly witness to history. This is her story.
