Songbird [Large Print]

By: Heenan, Karen

Can a girl come from nothing and rise to the heart of the Tudor court?

Ten-year-old Bess possesses a glorious voice, but in a world of poverty and hardship, singing is nothing more than a frivolous luxury. When her father sells her to the king of England, she leaves behind everything she's ever known and enters a world of opulence and music.

Bess flourishes at court, building a new family and becoming the king's favorite minstrel, his "Songbird." As she comes of age, she witnesses firsthand the fragility of life in a world where every corner holds a secret and every smile could mask betrayal. Even the king isn't safe.

When Bess becomes entangled with a young Anne Boleyn, she is drawn into a world beyond the confines of her position. She craves freedom, love, and the chance to be her own person. But is she strong enough to break free from the gilded cage she's built for herself, when a single wrong note could cost her everything?

Through all the turbulence of life at court, there is one constant: Tom, her childhood friend and confidant. Their bond is a reminder of a simpler time before the complications of growing up and falling in love.

If you've ever dreamed of stepping back in time and experiencing the intrigue and drama of Henry VIII's court, then this immersive historical novel is for you.
