Description for THE CARDINAL AND THE QUEEN by Evelyn Anthony:
UNHOLY LOVE
Amid the soft, scented corruption of the royal court of France, the mighty Cardinal Richelieu had held himself aloof as he wove his subtle net of intrigue. But when this steel-nerved man beheld the young Queen Anne, so beautiful and still a virgin after three long years of marriage, his body betrayed him, and for the first time his brilliant mind became a servant to his lust.
With the same determination and dark passion that had made him the King's most powerful minister, the Cardinal vowed that proud Queen Anne would be his -- regardless of her fears, regardless of her will...
The fictitious story of Anne, Queen of France, wife of Louis XIII, and popularly thought to have been the mistress of Richelieu. It is further thought that he was the father of Louis XIV.
