Beginning with the legend of the fisherman Edric on the Isle of Thorns, Rose Kingsley tells English history through the children whose tombs lie in the Abbey. Prince Alphonso, John of Eltham, Edward V and his brother Richard, Edward VI and Elizabeth Russell, whose sudden death bred a false tale about a needle prick, appear in turn.
