About the book: 1994 / Contemporaries called the golden-haired daughter of the Pope, the beautiful Lucrezia Borgia, “a symbol of vice.” In the exciting novels of the popular English writer Victoria Holt, “Madonna of the Seven Hills” and “Damaged Lucretia” (the works were written under her other pseudonym, Jean Plaidy), the heroine appears not only as a notorious seductress, but also as a fragile, vulnerable, and most importantly, selflessly loving woman..
