​Join Philippa Gregory as she takes you on a journey through the history you thought you knew.

​In her new novel, Boleyn Traitor, she returns to the Tudor court and a woman famously branded as a traitor, but whose real story was far more complex – the mysterious Jane Boleyn.

​Bringing the Boleyn traitor out of the shadows, this is an explosive story of one woman’s survival in the deadly dance of the Tudor Court. It will be a fascinating evening of entertaining historical insight and unforgettable storytelling.

​About the book: Boleyn Traitor

​Her secrets shaped a kingdom​. Her loyalty was deadly. ​

​Jane Boleyn watches from the shadows of the Tudor court. Where nothing is more powerful than a secret. And power rests on the edge of a tyrant king’s sword.​

​She wears many masks – loving wife, devoted sister, and obedient spy. It’s what a woman must do to survive. ​

​The only weapon she has is her voice.​

​They say Jane’s whispers sealed the fate of two queens. They called her a liar and a traitor. ​

​But the truth is far more dangerous… ​
