April 1483, and the untimely death of King Edward IV leaves both the house of York and England without a master. As the succession crisis threatens to spiral out of control, Francis Lovell is drawn in, deeper and deeper. His childhood friend, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, is at the centre of the struggle for the crown, and Francis will find his loyalty to "G" tested by the machinations of those who seek to bring about the destruction of the Yorkist regime, and by the consequences of his own imperfections. In this first volume of Lovell's story both committed Ricardians and readers new to the story of Richard's usurpation of the throne will find themselves taken through a vividly imagined 15th century world into the very eye of the storm, as conspiracy and treason poison the air of that sweltering summer, and the succession, the fate of the Princes in the Tower, and the destiny of England are decided .

The second and concluding part of G begins as Richard of Gloucester prepares for his coronation. But what has befallen the two Princes in the Tower? And how secure is this new King Richard upon his throne, as powerful forces conspire against him? Francis is now closer than ever to the centre of power, as the king's Lord Chamberlain, and still treading a dangerous path between loyalty and intrigue. But the time of peace may be short - across the Channel the pretender to the throne Henry Tudor bides his time, waiting for the moment to strike, and bloody insurrection is only a whisper away. Conspiracy, rebellion, disaster, and the final reckoning at Bosworth await. Readers will find the true genesis of the Tudor regime exposed to the light of day, and the nature of their understanding of "truth" in the historical account challenged in this exciting and thought-provoking fictionalised version of the brief reign of Richard of Gloucester - the most reviled of English kings.
