TO SHIELD THE QUEEN A Mystery at Queen Elizabeth’s Court

Ursula is a recent widow who is sent to the court of Elizabeth I. In a short time, she is caught up in court life and intrigue as she tries to find who killed the very woman she was to protect. Narrator Nadia May is excellent as she takes on the royal entourage, but she is extra charming portraying Ursula as a clever, witty, sharp-tongued woman who has an eye for the gentlemen! The characters sparkle as May imbues them with the language and speaking manner of a significant and distinctive historical period. S.G.B. © AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: FEB/MAR 00]
