Renaissance Rome, 1497: As the teenage daughter of Pope Alexander VI, Lucrezia Borgia is a young noblewoman immersed in all the glamor of the Vatican Palace. Yet after a brutal killing shocks the city, Lucrezia learns that a dark truth lies beneath the surface of the Papal Court - in their ruthless quest for power, her father and brother are willing to poison their enemies.
Her family members are murderers.
After discovering that her new husband is next to die, Lucrezia struggles to help him escape from Rome before the assassins strike. Against a barrage of political intrigues, papal spies, and diabolical tricks, Lucrezia uses all her wits to defy her family and save her husband from assassination. But as tragedy looms ever closer, and her plans gradually fail, she finds herself confronting an enemy far more sinister than she ever imagined.

" A lot of typos in this book...a lot of bad similies too. And don't expect historical accuracy in any measure, it's wildly off the historic track. "
" Not much in the way of historical fact, but very engaging and entertaining. "
" I did not find this version very historically accurate, nor did I think the character development was that great. "
" Not a lot of facts here, but fun to read. "
