Winchester Books Festival

18 April 2026, 11:30am. The Guildhall, The Broadway, Winchester, SO23 9GH

I’m delighted to be part of the Winchester Books Festival - one of the brightest and the best! I’ll be talking about The King’s Mother and the women of the Wars of the Roses, my inspiration for the story and my approach to writing it.

Expect a passionate conversation about power, resilience, controversial history and the lengths mothers will go to protect and advance their children in a world defined by danger, betrayal, and ambition.
