'My, what a story!delightfully vulgar and utterly compelling.' The Times 'Mesmerising and beautifully written.' Scotsman 'Suzannah Dunn!weaves a kind of love story that is both moving and believable. This is the Tudor world as seldom seen!The result is historical chick lit at its most charming.' Telegraph 'Dunn [sheds] possible new light on Katharine's marriage to Thomas Seymour and her final days are treated with sympathy and skill.' The Tablet Praise for 'The Queen of Subtleties': 'Suzannah Dunn is, as ever, a mistress at describing the material world through which her characters move.' Guardian 'A boisterous historical recreation.' Independent '"The Queen of Subtleties" offers a stunningly refreshing way of retelling an old story. I often abandon historical novels nowadays, but I really could not put this one down. It brings Anne Boleyn to life as never before, and, probably for the first time ever in fiction, Henry VIII emerges as a truly credible character in an authentic setting.' Alison Weir, author of 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII'
