The Daughter of Time
by Josephine They

Was Richard III really the evil usurper who had his nephews, the Princes in the Tower, murdered, or was he, perhaps, a kind and just king, vilified by his enemies? Inspector Alan Grant of Scotland Yard is determined to find the truth in this historical mystery. While recovering from a broken leg, he begins researching Richard III to alleviate his boredom, but soon becomes fascinated with the possibility of the innocent Richard. With the help of Brent Carradine, a young American scholar, and historical documents from the British Museum, Inspector Grant sets out to discover the truth about Richard III. A well researched and brilliantly written book, The Daughter of Time will inspire the reader to contemplate the mystery and controversy surrounding the guilt or innocence of Richard III.
