儘管費盡千辛萬苦才使安妮．博林 ( Anne Boleyn ) 成為他的王后，但亨利八世 ( Henry VIII ) 已不再為她動心。安妮始終無法為他產下繼承人，且機智、時常冒犯人的她很可能會使國王和其他貴族間產生嫌隙。而當前任王后凱瑟琳死於流放，安妮則成為眾矢之的，身處流言和惡意之中。
亨利八世一聲令下，克倫威爾 ( Thomas Cromwell ) 便著手準備讓安妮垮台。不消數周，安妮便已深陷克倫威爾的陰謀，端莊的珍·西摩 ( Jane Seymour ) 則等著成為下一位戴上那枚彷彿受到詛咒的婚戒。但安妮與強大的博林家族並不會輕易投降，克倫威爾勢必得與他的敵人聯手。為了安妮的項上人頭，他又得付出什麼代價？

The sequel to Wolf Hall, Hilary Mantel's 2009 Man Booker Prize winner and New York Times bestseller, Bring Up the Bodies delves into the heart of Tudor history with the downfall of Anne Boleyn.
Though he battled for seven years to marry her, Henry is disenchanted with Anne Boleyn. She has failed to give him a son and her sharp intelligence and audacious will alienate his old friends and the noble families of England. When the discarded Katherine dies in exile from the court, Anne stands starkly exposed, the focus of gossip and malice.
At a word from Henry, Thomas Cromwell is ready to bring her down. Over three terrifying weeks, Anne is ensnared in a web of conspiracy, while the demure Jane Seymour stands waiting her turn for the poisoned wedding ring. But Anne and her powerful family will not yield without a ferocious struggle. Hilary Mantel's Bring Up the Bodies follows the dramatic trial of the queen and her suitors for adultery and treason. To defeat the Boleyns, Cromwell must ally with his natural enemies, the papist aristocracy. What price will he pay for Anne's head?
