But her uncle, King Edward, forces her to become a bold woman when he realizes that his grip on the Mercian territory is in danger. With her newfound courage, Ælfwyn attempts to oppose her uncle and save her mother's reputation as a kindly ruler. Taking a risk, she flees, disguising herself as a boy storyteller. But she cannot escape her destiny - or her heart - and the choices she makes now will decide her future and the future of her country.
