Una novela histórica basada en la vida de la princesa Carolina Matilde, hermana de Jorge III, cuyo matrimonio la llevó al trono de Dinamarca y cuyo amor secreto la condujo al desastre. La obra narra una historia de romance y tragedia, presentando un drama conmovedor sobre la fragilidad humana frente a las implacables exigencias de la corona real. Con una cuidadosa atención al registro histórico, Norah Lofts recrea la vida de Carolina Matilde en un relato que evoca vívidamente los marcados contrastes de la Dinamarca del siglo XVIII: la crueldad, la pobreza y la opresión bajo un monarca absoluto que se sumerge en la locura, así como las intrigas y odios que rodearon a la joven reina en la corte real.

Although specializing in historical fiction and "known for her effective use of English history" in her work, she also wrote some mysteries, short stories and non-fiction.
