Why read it?
1 author picked A Dangerous Inheritance as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Still, I cannot not recommend it, because it stunned me over and over with its vivid characters and the slowly unravelling mystery that is at the heart of the story. Above all, I was delighted to find that this novel centres around two young women who have been overshadowed by more prolific historical figures, bringing lesser-told stories to the forefront.
From Saga's list on the Tudors and Plantagenets that educate.
