Description

In 1533, a woman named Alice Tankerville pulled off one of the boldest acts in Tudor history, escaping from the Tower of London. Accused of piracy and murder, Alice used her wit, charm, and the affection of a lovestruck guard to slip out of her chains and nearly make it to freedom.

This is the real story of love, betrayal, and a desperate flight under the shadow of Henry VIII’s Tower - featuring lost gold, a doomed romance, and an unforgettable escape.
