After the execution of his beloved but unfaithful wife Catherine Howard in February 1542, Henry VIII turns his attention to the twice widowed Catherine Parr. However, she is in love with Thomas Seymour, the brother of the late Queen Jane. Having learned of his rival, the king sends Seymour abroad, and Catherine Parr has no choice but to become Henry VIII's sixth queen. She tries to be a good wife to him and happily takes care of his children. Four years after the wedding, Henry dies, leaving the throne of England to nine-year-old Edward, a puppet in the hands of ambitious courtiers, and Catherine's life changes dramatically. Delighted with the opportunity to marry her first love, she does not understand that Thomas Seymour now sees her as just a stepping stone to the throne, while in fact his goal is Henry's daughter, fourteen-year-old Elizabeth... "The Sixth Wife. "A Novel about Catherine Parr" is the latest book by the popular author and renowned historian Alison Weir, who decided to create a dramatic series dedicated to the wives of King Henry VIII. For the first time in Russian!
