The Sixth Wife - Suzannah Dunn (2007).Very enjoyable historical tale of Katherine Parr, Henry the VIIIs sixth and final wife. Told by her best friend Catherine, Duchess of Suffolk it explores Katherine Parrs life after the old king has died, her hasty marriage to Thomas Seymour and the two wards in their care. The Princess Elizabeth and Lady Jane Grey.
Similar in style to Phillipa Gregorys series about Henry the VIIIs other wifes, this book held my attention to the end and was a very pleasant read. 4/5.
