An intimate portrayal of Richard III.
In 1459, as rival branches of the royal House of Plantagenet descend into treachery and chaos in a struggle for the English crown, seven-year-old Richard’s family is ripped apart. Alternately sheltered from and thrust into the middle of bloody conflicts, the future King Richard III grows into adolescence besieged by questions about honor and love, loyalty and betrayal, life and death, all shaping the man he will become. As husband and father, brother and uncle, he faces a political situation where each path open to him risks everything, and everyone, he holds dear. Can he find his way without condemning his soul?

Benediction captures the private life of the king from boyhood through to Bosworth Field in a way that gives the reader a richly nuanced portrait of Richard in the proper context of his time.
