Presents the story, through the sixth wife, of what is was like to be the wife of King Henry VIII of England. She finds a box of letters, one from each of Henry's five wives. The letters describe the sad, angry and frightened state of the five - used up by the King and either dead, divorced or beheaded.
There were six of them - three Katherines, two Annes, and a Jane. One of them was the King's wife for twenty-four years, another for only a year and a half. One died, two were divorced, and two were beheaded. It was a dangerous, uncertain life. After the King's death in 1547, his sixth wife finds a box of old letters - one from each of the first five wives. They are sad, angry, frightened letters. They tell the story of what it was like to be the wife of Henry VIII of England.
