Discover the fascinating story of Arbella Stuart, the cousin of James VI of Scotland and niece of Mary Queen of Scots, in this historical biography by Sarah Gristwood. Orphaned as a baby and raised by her ambitious grandmother, Arbella became a key player in the struggle for succession to the English throne. Despite the restrictions and plots surrounding her, Arbella found love in William Seymour, defying royal prohibitions and marrying in secret. Her attempted escape and subsequent imprisonment in the Tower of London marked a tragic end for this forgotten figure in English history.
