I'll nominate Elizabeth: Renaissance Prince by Lisa Hilton and Elizabeth and Leicester: Power, Passion and Politics by Sarah Gristwood.
If anyone has a nomination to make, now would be a good time to do so. I'll probably be opening the poll later today.
"From acclaimed author Karen Brooks comes this intriguing novel rich in historical detail and drama as it tells the unforgettable story of Queen Elizabeth's daring, ruthless spymaster and his female protégée."
I will nominate How to Behave Badly in Renaissance Britain by Ruth Goodman, and The White Rose Murders by Paul Doherty.And with that I close nominations.

If it's in a series, can it be easily read as a stand-alone? If not, you might want to nominate the first book in the series, or the most recent book in it the group has not read together.
Can't remember what we've already read as a group? (Sometimes I can't, either.) There's a "group-reads" shelf on the group's Bookshelf.
Two nominations to a person, please.
