Despite five centuries of investigation by historians, the sinister deaths of the boy king Edward V and his younger brother Richard, Duke of York, remain two of the most fascinating murder mysteries in English history. Did Richard III really kill "the Princes in the Tower," as is commonly believed, or was the murderer someone else entirely? Alison Weir carefully examines contemporary evidence as well as dozens of modern accounts to reconstruct the chain of events that led to the double murder.
