Jo Harkin's novel "The Pretender" dramatizes the true story of Lambert Simnel, a 15th-century farmboy tutored to impersonate Edward V and used as a figurehead in a Yorkist rebellion against Henry VII. Narrator John Hollingworth delivers a charismatic reading of this historical fiction about courtly intrigue and political conspiracy.
