Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Queen''s Play by Dorothy Dunnett, read by David Monteath.

It is 1548 and seven-year-old Mary Queen of Scots, betrothed to her cousin the Dauphin, heir to the French throne, has been dispatched to France. But far from home and vulnerable, surrounded by the double-dealing and debauchery of a dangerous and unpredictable court, she suffers a series of ''accidents''.

Her mother, Scotland''s Queen Dowager, orders Francis Crawford of Lymond to protect Mary, believing that at the very heart of Henri II''s glittering, decadent court is an assassin hired to kill the infant monarch.

Lymond must secretly hunt down this individual before he himself is exposed . . .

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dorothy Dunnett

Dorothy Dunnett foi considerada por muitos a melhor autora de ficção histórica do seu tempo, reconhecida internacionalmente por aliar factos históricos e imaginação. Ganhou fama sobretudo com as séries As Crónicas de Lymond e The House of Niccolo – passadas na Europa e no Mediterrâneo dos séculos XV e XVI – e com o romance histórico King Hereafter.
Em 1992, Dorothy Dunnett recebeu o prémio OBE pelo serviço prestado à literatura, e, em 2014, Francis Crawford de Lymond, o seu protagonista mais duradouro, foi votado o personagem histórico favorito dos Escoceses – ultrapassando figuras como Sherlock Holmes e Harry Potter.
A autora fundou a Dorothy Dunnett Society, com o objetivo de promover o estudo das épocas sobre as quais escrevia e de incentivar à conservação e leitura das suas obras.
