Overview
The Anne O'Brien 3 Books Collection Set brings together three standalone historical novels set amid the turbulent Wars of the Roses and the earlier Plantagenet power struggles of 1399. Following Cecily Neville, Constance of York, and Elizabeth Mortimer, these gripping stories explore ambition, loyalty, and the hidden power of medieval women. Brand new in paperback, this set is ideal for fans of Philippa Gregory, sweeping historical sagas, and character-driven political intrigue.

About the Books
The Queen's Rival follows Cecily Neville, Duchess of York, as she plots to overturn the weak-minded King Henry VI. When the Yorkist cause falters at the Battle of Ludford Bridge, Cecily is abandoned to face a hostile Lancastrian force alone, stripped of her lands and imprisoned at Tonbridge Castle. Her survival hinges on cunning and a carefully woven web of deceit, setting in motion the chain of events that ultimately crowns her son King Edward IV.

A Tapestry of Treason is set in 1399 and centres on Constance of York, Lady Despenser, as she is drawn into the dangerous conspiracies of the House of York. Surrounded by self-interested men, including her husband Thomas and her brothers Edward and Richard, Constance becomes entangled in plots that could restore Richard II to the throne or elevate a rival Mortimer claimant.

Queen of the North, also set in 1399, follows Elizabeth Mortimer's fierce determination to secure the crown for her young nephew Edmund as Henry of Lancaster returns to England and Richard II's grip on power weakens. Elizabeth must protect her family's northern lands and legacy, even as those closest to her resist the prospect of another child-king.
