Once a Queen

Once A Queen is the incredibly gripping story of Saxon England's first crowned queen who's been censured by history as a whore and a murderer but was neither. The widowed Lady Elfrida has achieved the impossible in tenth-century England. She’s ensured her son has become king, despite the gruesome murder of his predecessor and half-brother, Edward. But her son has been far from grateful for her endeavours. Lady Elfrida is restored to the royal court and to her son and his ever-growing family. Tasked with raising her grandchildren, Lady Elfrida understands the honour her son has endowed her with, even though it forces her to stay distant from the day-to-day running of the court.
