With More as her affectionate guardian, Honor grows up to womanhood, when the glitter of the royal courtroom lures her to attend Her Majesty, Queen Catherine of Aragon. But life at Henry VIII's courtroom retains more than artifice for an intelligent observer, and Honor is aware how to watch - so when to do something.Angered by the humiliation heaped after her mistress as Henry cavorts with Anne Boleyn and presses Rome for a divorce, Honor volunteers to carry characters to the Queen's allies.

Richard Thornleigh may cut a dashing physique at courtroom, but Honor isn't used by his reckless allure. Only later does indeed Honor recognize that Richard has awakened something within her - and that he, too, has something to cover...For the King's actions are merely one knot in a twisted web that stretches across Europe, ensnaring everyone from the lowliest of peasants to the most effective of nobles. Swept away in a tide of intrigue and danger, the Queen's sweetheart is about to learn everything: about delight, enthusiasm, greed - and the conscience of the Ruler...
