The King's Damsel is the story of Thomasine Lodge, maid of honor to Princess Mary Tudor, sent to the court of Mary's father, Henry VIII, to spy on Henry's new wife, the beautiful and deadly Anne Boleyn.

from Publisher's Weekly: "Sparked by an actual letter written by a Spanish ambassador in 1534, Emerson creates a believable scenario rich in accurate detail where her fictional Thomasine strolls comfortably next to real-life figures."

from Fresh Fiction: "Emerson paints an impressively accurate portrait not only of King Henry VIII, but of Princess Mary and Anne Boleyn, as well. . . . Kate Emerson deserves a round of applause. . . . THE KING'S DAMSEL is simply perfect."
