review 1: Although I knew about Lady Jane Grey (the Nine Day Queen), I hadn't known about her sisters who also might have claimed the throne of England. This is an excellent novel which tells the story of Katherine and Mary Grey, Jane's younger sisters. It starts with Jane's execution and goes through the reign of Mary I and into Elizabeth's reign. The story is narrated alternately by Mary Grey, Katherine Grey, and Lavina Teerlinc who is a friend of the Greys and a portrait painter.
