unity and a guardian of traditions. Today, the Windsors are the ruling royal dynasty in the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms. Direct descendants of Queen Victoria have preserved the institution of monarchy and led the country to prosperity. However, every coin has two sides, and behind royal grandeur lies more than one skeleton in the closet. Over their three hundred years of rule, the Windsors have surrounded themselves with mysteries, rumors, and countless questions. Why didn’t George V extend a helping hand to his cousin Nicholas II? Did Edward VIII really sympathize with the fascists? Did the royal family have anything to do with the death of Princess Diana — or are there much darker forces at play in this tragedy? Why did Elizabeth II remain silent for years about the personal dramas of her children? Why did Prince Harry decide to sever ties with the home that made him a symbol of a new era? What secrets do Prince Philip's letters hold — and what connects Charles III with his great-grandfather Edward VII? This book opens the curtains on the British court, combining documentary accuracy with captivating storytelling. Before the reader stands a dynasty where myths intertwine with reality, and grandeur often coexists with drama.
