Henry Maddox Music Teacher

Maddox was a young and talented musician, brought into the household of the Dowager Duchess of Norfolk to teach her wards their music lessons. Amongst his pupils was Catherine Howard. Because of her noble birth, Catherine’s education was treated with greater importance than many of the others, as she was expected one day to be sent to court to make a marriage.

It did not take long for Maddox to become completely taken with her. Catherine’s energy and love of life drew him in, and she allowed his feelings to grow closer than was ever wise. What began as music lessons soon became something much more dangerous.
