Tudor England – a dangerous world where a few wrong words can get you accused of witchcraft.
And that’s just the start…
When a girl in 2015 falls through a time-travelling worm-hole she finds herself in 1565. Accused of being a witch, she has to use her wits, her cunning and her ingenuity to survive. The trilogy then takes her – and readers of all ages – into a dark world of assassins, subterfuge and plots, involving Queen Elizabeth, Francis Walsingham and Mary Queen of Scots.

When you’re being hunted across Europe, trust is the deadliest weapon.
From misty Dutch canals to treacherous Alpine peaks, through the crowded streets of Milan to the grand palazzos of Florence, Mary finds herself in a deadly game of cat and mouse with her cunning adversary. Each safe house could be a trap, each ally a potential betrayer.
In Florence, Mary gets caught up in a deadly plot against Duke Alessandro de Medici, and is held a prisoner. Can she escape before the deadline to return the jewel runs out? And will it be her enemy that seals her fate, or an explosive eruption of fiery lava lurking under the Bay of Naples?
In this deadly dance of shadows and fire, has the legendary Mary Fox finally met her match?
“Mary Fox Rides Again! If you loved the first book, you will be thrilled with this one! Mary Fox shines in this rollicking Tudor adventure, sometimes besting the villains but not always. I loved how the author inserted Mary into the lives of Bessie Blount/Lady Kyme, Henry Fitzroy, and even Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn.”
“The Tudor Prince will have you rooting for the swash-buckling Mary from page one.”
“I adored the first book but this one surpasses it! It’s Mary Fox with a Tudor twist.”
“The third Mary Fox book is coming this Fall, and all I can say is that Jonathan Posner can’t write them fast enough for me!”
What if you bear an uncanny resemblance to a missing prince?
1533. Mary Fox agrees to stand in for young Henry Fitzroy, the illegitimate son of Henry VIII. But then she uncovers a treacherous plot behind the prince’s disappearance; one that goes right to the very top of the Tudor Court.
It’s a plot to change the royal line of succession, and will almost certainly make England descend into another bloody civil war.
As Mary is pulled deeper and deeper into the deception, she realises she has to seize control and turn the tables on the plot’s mysterious ringleader. But there’s a twist; the man ordered to kidnap the prince is none other than Jacob Cruddon, Mary’s bitterest enemy.
Can Mary defeat Cruddon and get out alive, or will he get his own revenge by killing her first?
The Tudor Prince is Mary Fox’s most dangerous adventure yet.
