Amazingly prolific writer we knew as Jean Plaidy etc -

now Victoria Holt or Philippa Carr etc

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Plaidy

100 m books sold!! I thought Jean Plaidy was long dead and other two were young - 3rd generation writers -- truly amazing.

Found her while looking for books about Catherine Valois and her gardener lover Owen Tudor, who set up the Tudor Dynasty.

Guide mentioned when I went to Leeds Castle.
