The Fears of Henry IV: The Life of England's Self-Made King

Trama

In June 1405, King Henry IV stopped at a small Yorkshire manor house to shelter from a storm. That night he awoke screaming that traitors were burning his skin. His instinctive belief that he was being poisoned was understandable- he had already survived at least eight plots to dethrone or kill him in the first six years of his reign.
