At the troubled court of Charles VI of France, the young servant Mette becomes wet nurse and companion to Catherine of Valois. The princess grows up amid her father’s illness, the rivalry between Burgundian and Armagnac factions and the political calculations of relatives who regard her marriage as a tool of diplomacy.
The English victory at Agincourt transforms Catherine’s value and brings Henry V into her future. Narrated through the fictional Mette, the novel follows Catherine from childhood to the negotiations that make her queen of England, combining a domestic view of the French court with the dynastic consequences of the Hundred Years’ War.
