La Reine étranglée (Les rois maudits, #2) -- Francia, siglo XIV. La maldición que el Gran Maestre de los templarios lanzara a la cara del rey Felipe el Hermoso parece haberse hecho realidad. Intrigas palaciegas, batallas entre dinastías y guerras desastrosas se suceden y llevan a la corte, a los prelados, a los jueces, a los banqueros y hasta al propio rey a una situación desesperada. Todo ello será preámbulo de un crimen. |...| The Strangled Queen (The Accursed Kings #2) by Maurice Druon -- The King is dead. Long live the King.

With King Philip IV dead, and the Kingdom left in disarray, as the fatal curse of the Templars plagues the royal house of France.

Imprisoned in Chateau Gaillard, Marguerite of Burgundy has fallen into disgrace. Her infidelity has left her estranged husband, Louis X King of France, with neither heir nor wife.

The web of scandal, murder and intrigue that once wove itself around the Iron King continues to afflict his descendants, as the destruction of his dynasty continues at the hands of fate. |...| After 29 years of governing without pause, Philip the Handsome dies and is succeeded by the Frenchman Louis X, a prince of weak character and poor intelligence. When his wife, Marguerite of Burgundy, is imprisoned for adultery, the King's private rivalries, intrigues, and conspiracies are brought to court—and to the eyes of the church dignitaries, the judges, the bankers, and the people.
