In a court where trust can cost you everything, one woman’s search for vengeance demands the one thing she cannot afford to give.

Isolde Courtenay has spent seven years at the court of Henry VII, her purpose concealed beneath flawless obedience. Once the daughter of a nobleman executed for treason, she now serves in the household of Lady Margaret Beaufort, the woman responsible for her father’s downfall.

She has waited patiently.

Now the moment has come.

When a French envoy arrives with evidence that could expose a dangerous secret at the heart of the Tudor court, Isolde is closer than ever to the truth she has sought for years.

But nothing at court is ever freely given.

To claim it, she must place her trust in those whose loyalties shift with power, and risk everything she has carefully built.

Because in a world where silence protects the powerful, the truth is never without cost.

And some debts are not meant to be settled.

Enter the Mistresses of Deception series.

Set against the shifting loyalties of the Tudor court.
