Mary Queen of Scotland and the Isles

Mary Queen of Scots - A Thrilling Historical Fiction Novel! Experience the captivating story of Scotland's iconic queen, Mary Stuart, in this epic historical fiction novel.

From her early years as a crowned queen at nine months old to her tumultuous reign and eventual doom, George has created a lively and gallant Mary of intelligence, charm, and terrible judgment.

Unlike cousin Elizabeth I of England, Mary enjoyed a richly cosseted and loving childhood and youth, but arriving back in Scotland was a shock, at first bewildering, then exhilarating.

However, the trumpet blasts of Reformed Kirk theologian John Knox against a female ruler (and a Catholic to boot) and the intent of Mary's inner circle of lords to rule for her pose significant challenges.

Mary's stubborn choice of husband, Lord Darnley, soon slipped into drink and debauchery and even murder, leads to heart-wrenching tragedy.

But Mary's second husband, the Earl of Bothwell, given an unusually heroic cast, provides astonishing escapes, nick-of-time rescues, and fleeting interludes of lovers' joys.

Throughout, betrayal, sieges, and abuse sadly from the people who once cheered her are encountered, but Mary's unwavering spirit and determination never falter.

Will she find a way to overcome the treacherous obstacles in her path and secure her rightful place as queen? Dive into this gripping historical fiction novel to find out!
