520 |a Disgraced. Beheaded. And out for revenge . . . We all know what happened to Henry VIII's second wife, Anne Boleyn. But what if she woke up the day after her execution and took it upon herself to seek justice? "Nobody was surprised at Anne's conviction. The world loves to put a woman in her place." The Beheading Game begins in the hours after Anne Boleyn's beheading, when she wakes to find herself unceremoniously in an arrow chest, her head wrapped in linen at her knees. Discarded by King Henry VIII for not being able to give him a male heir, reviled by Cromwell for being too smart for her own good, and executed based on trumped-up charges, Anne escapes the tower, sews her head back on, and sets out on a quest for vengeance. Traveling in the guise of a commoner, with the help of a prostitute, Anne navigates the London streets she never before walked and soon realizes how little she knew about life in the real world. If Kelly Link had teamed up with Hilary Mantel, the result might be The Beheading Game. An epic journey through the wilds of British royal history and a prescient reminder that "mouthy" women have always been punished, The Beheading Game finally allows one of history's most maligned women a chance to tell her side of the story.
