Richard III is accused of murdering his nephews, the "Princes in the Tower", in order to usurp the throne of England, but this book tells a different story. Rather than looking at all the killings Richard III did not commit, this account focuses on the one judicial murder for which we know that he was responsible. On June 13, 1483, William, Lord Hastings, was hustled from a meeting of the Royal Council and summarily executed on Tower Green within the confines of the Tower of London.

Young Elizabeth Stuart was thrust into a life of wealth and splendor when her godmother, Queen Elizabeth I, died and her father, James I, ascended to the illustrious throne of England. At 16 she was married to a dashing German count far below her rank, with the understanding that James would help her husband achieve the crown of Bohemia. Her father's terrible betrayal of this promise would ruin "the Winter Queen", as Elizabeth would forever be known, imperil the lives of those she loved, and launch a war that would last for 30 years.

On August 22, 1485, at Bosworth Field, Richard III fell, the Wars of the Roses ended, and the Tudor dynasty began. The clash is so significant because it marks the break between medieval and modern; yet how much do we really know about this historical landmark? Michael K. Jones uses archival discoveries to show Richard III's defeat was by no means inevitable and was achieved only through extraordinary chance. He relocates the battle away from the site recognized for more than 500 years.

In this epic history, Dan Jones vividly resurrects this fierce and seductive royal dynasty and its mythic world.

Excellent Narrative History

Publisher's Summary
For centuries one great historical mystery has been capturing the imagination of the world - the fate of the Princes in the Tower.
Shakespeare casts Richard III as the ultimate villain, murdering his nephews in order to usurp the throne. This has always been the traditional view. In recent years alternative theories have been suggested that let Richard off the hook and lay the blame elsewhere. However, with the recent discovery of Richard’s body in Leicester a whole new wave of interest has been stirred in all things related to Richard III. Was he really the child killer portrayed by Thomas More and William Shakespeare?
In this short audiobook, a retired detective reopens this cold case and attempts to piece together the evidence and answer the great mystery about what really happened to the young Princes.
Were they really murdered? If so, what happened to the bodies and who did the evil deed? Or were they left unharmed and left to live out their days in peace? Was a challenging offered up in place of Richard, Duke of York by Elizabeth Woodville and was that why Henry VII was so concerned by Perkin Warbeck?
As the author delves deeper into the evidence he finds intriguing facts including doubts about dental evidence used to determine the ages of the skeletons found in the Tower of London, the fact that skeletons were abandoned for years in the Tower after discovery and details of two mysterious coffins buried at Winsor.
In addition, he highlights the key suspect that no historian seems to even contemplate could be responsible for the Princes disappearance.
Finally he gathers the suspects in one room to revel what he believes really happened. The question is, do you agree?

I love a good mystery
This is a very good audio book. Mark Garber makes a compelling case on who killed the two princes. His evidence was spot on. I believe he cracked this cold case wide open. The narrator kept me glued to the story, usually audio books put me to sleep. I admit I listened to this book twice!

Who Done It? (15th Century Style)
This book is a must listen. The author leads you through the case, right up to his revealing of the logical and obvious suspect. You will be surprised when the name is revealed. It is also the only possible suspect, once you have the facts. This is another book that I've listened to several times.

I have always been haunted by the disappearance of the princes. I first learned of it during a visit and tour of the Tower of London The beefeater all had an interesting response when I asked about the princess.
Now, listening to this book, I can put things into perspective: time line and names the involved.
The author does a great job presenting the facts and dissecting the plausibility as if working on a court case.

The narration made it difficult for me. Too many sentence breaks and pauses. However, (the writer uses that word about every other sentence) the premise was very interesting to me. He approached the subject like a cold case detective, using motive, timeline, opportunity etc as any other investigator would.
If only the Queen would allow DNA testing on those bones....

A Different Perspective & Possible Answers......
Written by a retired detective, this book gives an eye opening approach to this unsolved mystery. Direct & straightforward insights of which a historian doesn't offer.
I enjoyed how he 'talks' to the reader and his Hercule Poirot style ending. Presenting those who may have been involved -- many surprises. Admittedly I find it hard to disagree with his wise outcome.
Though Mark Garber states he will probably not write another book, hopefully he'll reconsider. There are many other historical mysteries could benefit from his insight.

If you could sum up Cold Case Reopened in three words, what would they be?
Just the facts!
What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?
The narrator had a good voice and was easy to listen too.
Any additional comments?
This was a unique approach to solving the age old mystery of who killed the Princesses in the Tower. I enjoyed that the author conducted a police investigation to come to his conclusions. Very interesting information and good research.

Intriguing
A balanced and thoughtful account of the brief reign of Richard iii . The main characters of that time are discussed, with the likelihood or otherwise of their involvement in the disappearance of Edward V and his brother, Richard. An intelligent and objective approach to a subject which has been distorted by Tudor historical propaganda, and enshrined Shakespeare's unpleasant defamatory play.

Too many hypotheses discussed and discarded.
Would you ever listen to anything by Mark Garber again?
No. However, he himself says this is the only book he will ever write.
Any additional comments?
I got totally lost after a while. I am quite willing to believe that the author is going about this in the same way he would with any murder case. The result, however, is that he takes each character, says why they are suspects, then says why they are not suspects. He does this over and over again, and I just got lost. I just wasn't ready for the mental agility required to follow this audiobook.
