The Widow of His Majesty

At sixteen, Katarina became yet another wife of Henry VIII. At twenty, she was widowed, and at twenty-seven she escaped from the golden cage of the palace. But life on the outside is not as easy as she imagined. The... old estate carefully keeps its secrets, the new relatives are full of grand plans in which Katarina is given a special place, and someone clearly intends to rid themselves of the poor widow. Her only hope for unraveling it all is the royal investigator, a loyal servant of the crown, and a neighbor who has the bad habit of wandering through other people's gardens inappropriately dressed. However, what can one expect from misanthropes? Perhaps help, a couple of water lilies, and the promise that everything will eventually work out.
