The Lady of Misrule is a fictional account of Lady Jane Grey's incarceration in the Tower of London from the perspective of her companion, Elizabeth.

Suzannah Dunn emphasises Jane's innocence and the ludicrous reasons for her imprisonment. At a time when changes in religion were causing death and unrest, it was a crime merely to think a different way to the monarch, let alone be a "pretender" queen.

Despite the narrative, there was nothing the author could do to avoid its foregone conclusion. What is shocking, however, is the unexpected suddenness of the event, Jane's pious strength and the devastating shock felt by Elizabeth.
