This work is Josephine Tey's search for the truth about the murder of the Princes in the Tower. Was Richard III the monster the history books have portrayed? The search takes the form of a crime novel featuring Inspector Alan Grant.

Comments

Detective and history book in one, and helps to discredit Shakespeare's monstrous Richard 111 to boot!

A real mystery that still intrigues - history brought to life

First read this in my teens, a long time ago, and became a lifelong supporter of Richard. The book is quaintly dated now but still does a good job in raising awareness of the injustice that has been done over the years, and it is an enjoyable read!
