'A rich and textured portrait of Cardinal Wolsey' THE TIMES
'Nobody brings historical characters to life like Alison Weir' TRACY BORMAN

AN EXTRAORDINARY RISE TO POWER. A TRAGIC FALL FROM GRACE.

It begins with young Tom Wolsey, the bright and brilliant son of a Suffolk tradesman, sent to study at Oxford at just eleven years old.

It ends with a disgraced cardinal, cast from the King's side and estranged from the woman he loves.

The years in between tell the story of a scholar and a lover, a father and a priest. From the court of Henry VIII, Tom builds a powerful empire of church and state. At home in London, away from prying eyes, he finds joy in a secret second life.

But when King Henry, his cherished friend, demands the ultimate sacrifice, what will Wolsey choose?

Alison Weir's riveting new Tudor novel reveals the two lives of Cardinal Wolsey, a tale of power, passion and ambition.

A rich and textured portrait
Illuminating, emotional, fascinating you right there with Wolsey until the end (Kate Williams)
Through Weir's evocative prose we are taken into Wolsey's world, with his inevitable fall as heartbreaking as his rise was exhilarating (Elizabeth Norton)
Vibrant and informative . . . The Cardinal at last turns the spotlight on the great figure lurking behind the Cromwell of Wolf Hall (Sarah Gristwood)
In this pacy narrative, Cardinal Thomas Wolsey becomes more than just a historical figure - his personality and the twists and turns of his rise and fall leap from every page (Nicola Tallis)
