The year is 1399. The English court is a hotbed of political intrigue. Sancha de Servieres, lady-in-waiting to the queen, is the only one who knows the truth behind the murder of King Richard II. To ensure her silence, the conspirators seize and drug her. Passing her off as a wealthy madwoman, they swiftly marry her to a mercenary knight, whose reward is a coveted fiefdom.

Awakening in a lonely castle on the Scottish border, Sancha is stunned when the man she calls husband treats her gently. Trust blossoms into friendship...and desire. But Sancha has not forgotten the faces of England's murderers. Embroiled in a web of dark treachery, she is forced to flee her tender captor.

Now in a land divided, a man and a woman thrust together by circumstances must fight for a love that is the strongest bond of all...
