This story centers around a young Jewish girl with the gift of Sight. She ends up in the court of Edward, then Mary, then Elizabeth. She must keep hidden her true faith, while precariously being tossed from one court to the next -- putting on the mantle of whichever faith is presently reigning. She is a kind hearted girl who finds good in each of the royalty she serves and in her way respects and loves them even when in conflict with her own fears and desires. This book hooked me on Philippa Gregory's writings.
