About this audiobook

In the summer of 1483, two young princes were placed inside the Tower of London and then quietly disappeared from history. Their fate remains one of England's most enduring mysteries, shadowed by power struggles, ambition, and a crown secured under questionable circumstances. This book revisits the story of the Princes in the Tower by examining contemporary accounts, political motives, and the fragile succession crisis that followed the death of Edward IV. It places King Richard III at the centre of a careful reassessment, weighing evidence and silence alike to consider whether his reign can be separated from the disappearance of his nephews. Measured, analytical, and grounded in historical debate, The Princes in the Tower: England's Lost Heirs and a King on Trial invites readers to reconsider a case where absence itself became the most powerful form of proof.
