In a land ruled by knights and the codes of chivalry, the line between protection and oppression can be a subtle one, and when a sickly prince leaves the succession in doubt, ambitious men gather ready to take advantage.
Mariette will use any weapon to protect her son's birthright, and she believes that revenge is the only way to end the fear. Her mission to unravel the politics and betrayals of the court, leads her into a dangerous game.
Edouard is certain he understands the concept of honour and duty. A knight's duty is to guard the weak through strength of arms. He believes the difference between right and wrong is clear, but he will discover the line is harder to perceive than he can know.
Soon Mariette and Edouard are caught in a twisted world where treachery, honour and love are hopelessly blurred. With each twist of betrayal, the plot unfolds towards tragedy. Soon more than their hearts and pride are at stake, lives stand at risk and trust becomes an act of bravery.
