Book excerpt: Delve into the opulent world of central-northern Europe as Edgar Maass brings to life the tale of Johann Friedrich Struensee in this historical fiction. From his humble beginnings as a physician, Struensee ascended to become prime minister and virtual dictator under the reign of the mad king, Christian VII of Denmark. Within the court's treacherous intrigues, he finds solace in the arms of the young queen, Caroline Matilda, igniting a passionate love affair that defies all odds. However, their happiness is threatened by a web of courtly conspiracies and power struggles. Will Struensee's idealistic reforms and devotion to the queen seal his fate, or will love triumph in the face of adversity?
