The Queen’s Bastard is the first book of The Inheritor’s Cycle, an epic fantasy set in an alternate sixteenth century that spans three countries and two royal courts, replete with political manoeuvring, espionage and assassination.

From the moment of her birth, Belinda Primrose has been a dangerous secret. Born the bastard daughter of Lorraine Walter, the Virgin Queen of Auron, her very existence was a threat to her mother’s crown; a state secret known only to Lorraine and to Robert Drake, Belinda’s father. Twenty years later, she is the Queen’s most loyal assassin, killing on her spy-master father’s word and in her mother’s name.
