Death and the Virgin Queen
On the morning of September 8, 1560, at the isolated manor of Cumnor Place, the body of a young woman was found at the bottom of a staircase, her neck broken. But this was no ordinary death.
As revealed in Death and the Virgin Queen, Amy Robsart was the wife of Elizabeth I’s favorite suitor, Robert Dudley, the man who many believed she would marry, were he free. Immediately people suspected foul play. Ultimately, a verdict of death by accident was reached—but the mystery refused to die, and cast a long shadow over Elizabeth’s reign.
Using recently discovered forensic evidence from the original investigation, Chris Skidmore puts an end to centuries of speculation about Tudor England’s most sensational crime.
