Description

Confidante of Nostradamus, scheming mother-in-law to Mary, Queen of Scots, and builder of the soft St. Bartholomew’s Time Massacre, Catherine de Medici is delivered to life by Jeanne Kalogridis, the best-selling writer of I, Mona Lisa and The Borgia Bride.Born into among Florence’s most effective people, Catherine was quickly quit a wonderfully wealthy orphan. The city state was torn apart by violent conflict and she identified himself jailed before ultimately released and married down for the fine Prince Henri of France. Overshadowed by her husband’s mistress, the beautiful, conniving Diane de Poitiers, and not able to bear children, Catherine turned for the black arts of sorcery to get Henri’s love and improve her fertility—for which she'd pay a cost.
