In 1578 young Lucy Ashton arrives at Court to serve as maid of honour to Elizabeth I, and look for a rich husband. A high-spirited girl, she soon forgets her strict country upbringing, and joins in the lively frolics of her fellow maids.
The story of her search for her 'prince' is intertwined with the tale of the Due d'Alencon's passionate wooing of the Queen. The ups and downs of this turbulent courtship afford the maids of honour much amusement. Lucy watches with concern, for she is convinced that her own happiness depends on the outcome of the Queen's romance. Fate, however, has a dramatic twist in store for her.
