Requiem of the Rose King

Richard Plantagenet has spent his life hardening himself for the battlefield, determined to stand beside his father, the Duke of York, in the fight to seize England’s crown from King Henry VI and the House of Lancaster. Yet behind his resolve lies a secret he keeps hidden—one his mother condemns and the merciless voices in his mind refuse to let him forget. In the midst of that private torment, his father’s affection remains one of the few comforts he can trust.

As the War of the Roses intensifies and violence escalates, Richard’s ambitions sharpen along with the conflict. Loyalties that once felt unbreakable begin to fracture, and the pursuit of power threatens to twist both Richard’s fate and his family’s march toward glory.
