Información de la editorial

Fascinated by one of the most intriguing secrets in the history of England's monarchy, Elaine Clayton has written a tale that imagines what might have happened to Prince Edward and Prince Richard after their father, King Edward IV's death.

In 1483, the princes Edward and Richard were locked up in one of the towers of the Tower of London by their uncle, Richard Duke of Gloucester (the famous Richard III of Shakespeare), who was eager to be crowned king instead of his young nephew. Soon after their imprisonment in the tower, the princes vanished mysteriously. To this day, the mystery of their disappearance has not been solved. While many believe that their uncle had them killed, the possibility remains that someone helped them escape. Perhaps it was a daughter of a yeoman of the guard!

Written in secret letters, The Yeoman's Daring Daughter tells how the daughter of a tower guard discovers a note from the imprisoned princes and replies by way of her pet raven. After the three discover that the duke is up to no good, they quickly make plans to escape via the traitors gate!
