Travel to Tudor England in this vivid tale charting the life and love of Katherine Parr, wife and widow to Henry VIII. Previously published as Queen's Gambit, Firebrand is now a major feature film.

Meet the woman who survived Henry VIII.

My name is Katherine Parr. I'm 31 years old and already twice widowed. I'm in love with a man I can't have, and am about to wed a man no-one would want.

My husband-to-be is none other than Henry VIII, who has already beheaded two wives, cast aside two more, and watched one die in childbirth. What will become of me once I'm wearing his ring and become Queen of England?

They say that the sharpest blades are sheathed in the softest pouches. Only time will tell what I am really made of...
