Gregory's 2011 novel ''The Lady of the Rivers'' is a prequel to ''The White Queen'', narrated by Elizabeth's mother Jacquetta of Luxembourg.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''The Lady of the Rivers'' (Official site) )〕 ==Plot== Young Elizabeth's husband, the Lancastrian knight Sir John Grey, has been killed in battle. She subsequently meets and falls in love with King Edward IV and with the help of her mother Jacquetta, Lady Rivers, they marry in secret. The story follows Elizabeth's life from her first meeting with Edward, through to his death and its aftermath. The mystery of the Princes in the Tower forms part of the action, with the novel questioning whether King Richard III was guilty of having the boys killed. In the novel, young Prince Richard is not sent to the tower; Queen Elizabeth instead substitutes a page boy for the prince, who escapes and lives under an assumed name. The novel ends in 1485, just prior to the Battle of Bosworth.
