Innocent Traitor By Alison WeirI bought this book today while I was out shopping and starting reading it in the dentists waiting room. I only read the first couple of chapters, but it looks like its going to be a goodie - I am quite captivated already!!
Its about the life of Lady Jane Grey, who was on the throne when Henry VIII died, but not for long - only a few days I think  Its a work of fiction - I think Alison Weir usually writes factual historical stuff, so this is unusual for her

It's her first historical fiction and I LOVED it Jo - really takes you into her world and is very accurate I think 
She has a biography of Katherine Swynford coming out in September - wife of John of Gaunt and the subject of Anya Seton's famous Katherine novel
