EVERYONE KNEW THAT QUEEN CAROLINE WAS THE REAL ROYAL POWER EXCEPT THE KING.
No one, not even the Queen's most powerful enemies, dared tell the vain and bullying little King, George II of England, that the Queen and the Prime Minister, Robert Walpole, were England's real rulers. But it was true.
In a court notorious for scandal and lechery, amid shattering family quarrels and plots, in spite of the King's repeated infidelities, Queen Caroline rose to true greatness. What no one knew was that, she herself had a secret vulnerability that threatened everything....
This sweeping tale blazes with deadly political struggle and the fires of undying passion. Faithful to the turbulence that rocked the Hanoverian rule, Caroline, the Queen is a sweeping drama, all the more moving and fascinating because it is true.
