Young Queen Elizabeth I's path to the throne has been a perilous one, and already she faces a dangerous crisis. French troops have landed in Scotland to quell a rebel Protestant army, and Elizabeth fears once they are entrenched on the border, they will invade England. Isabel Thornleigh has returned to London from the New World with her Spanish husband, Carlos Valverde, and their young son. Ever the queen's loyal servant, Isabel is recruited to smuggle money to the Scottish rebels. Yet Elizabeth's trust only goes so far—Isabel's son will be the queen's hostage until she completes her mission. Matters grow worse when Isabel's husband is engaged as military advisor to the French, putting the couple on opposite sides in a deadly cold war.

Dear Reader,
I'm delighted to share with you the release of my latest book, "Page-Turner: Your Path to Writing a Novel that Publishers Want and Readers Buy." As the author of novels with sales of over half a million books, I hope "Page-Turner" will help and inspire emerging writers everywhere.
Here's a little background about me. Before becoming an author, I enjoyed a twenty-year acting career in film and TV, and in stage productions across North America. I loved being an actor.
It felt like a natural extension of my acting to create characters for fiction, and in 2008 Kensington Books published my first novel, "The Queen’s Lady," set in Tudor England. It was the first in what became the Thornleigh Saga series of seven books. ("Riveting Tudor drama in the bestselling vein of Philippa Gregory" - USA Today)
Here are the Thornleigh Saga books in order:
1. The Queen's Lady
2. The King's Daughter
3. The Queen's Captive
4. The Queen's Gamble
5. Blood Between Queens
6. The Queen's Exiles
7. The Traitor's Daughter
I've also written four thrillers, including "Entrapped," winner of the IndieBrag Gold Medallion.
As a story coach and mentor, I have launched many writers on the path toward published success. For information about my online programs, master classes, and manuscript evaluation service please visit my website: www.BarbaraKyle.com.
Happy reading!
Warm regards,
Barbara Kyle
