From the minute she is sent to Hatfield, Mary Tudors' life, would never be the same again. When Mary Tudor receives the letter she has been dreading for years, it changes her world more than she ever could have imagined. The once indulged and sheltered heir to the throne of England, Mary is cast into the brutal and harsh reality that is her fathers' realm. Living as a prisoner, and forced to serve as a maid to her usurping half-sister, the daughter of Marys' deadly enemy, her ill-treatment will ultimately shape her life as a pious, and determinedly stubborn woman. Through four more of her fathers' marriages, a battle of religious liberty with her once adoring brother and her increasingly strained relationship with her sister, Mary must draw on her remarkable bravery and determination, to not only overcome the prejudices of her gender, but to also guide her to the most powerful, and dangerous role of all: the throne of England.

'Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived." In this way, the six wives of Henry VIII were remembered not for how they lived, but in the way they died. It is impossible to know exactly what they were thinking or had to go through, in having to marry this larger-than life King, so assured of his own rightness. It is impossible to know what their last thoughts were. But we can guess, and infer. Because these six women weren't simply paper-thin, flat cut-outs from hundreds of years ago; they were unique, and each had their own strength, and each had the fate to marry King Henry VIII, and dance around this large maypole. *Shorts on the six wives of Henry VIII; their lives, their deaths*
