Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: May 31, 1966. It's the wedding day of King Alphonso XIII of Spain and the British Princess Victoria Eugenia of Battenberg. As the royal procession snakes its way slowly through Madrid, the cheering of the crowd, the decorum and fanfare of the retinue mask the sinister assassination plot awaiting the young couple just before their gilded carriage enters the palace gates. Told from three points of view, The Princess, the King and the Anarchist is a sparkling translation of Pagani's critically acclaimed historical novel.
