1486. The new king, Henry VII, sits on an unsteady throne. His victory over Richard III at Bosworth has not ended the Yorkist threat. England is rife with conspiracy and rebellion.

A boy named Lambert Simnel is declared to be one of the missing princes in the Tower. He gains support from the Earl of Lincoln, who smuggles Lambert over to Ireland. There he is proclaimed king. A new Yorkist army gathers to invade England and destroy Henry.

Suddenly England is plunged back into civil war. As another deadly battle looms, William is thrown into a deadly game of treason and conspiracy. As he lurches from one danger to the next, the question looms...can the White Rose be crushed for good?
