Now Edward himself is an exiled fugitive while Anne's real father, King Henry V1, rules England again. Summoned by an enigmatic message from her lover, Anne is drawn once more to the passion, the excitement and the deadly danger that Edward Plantagenet brings into her life. But now, the girl who was once a penniless servant has a child and an inheritance to defend.

An old friend and old enemy return - one is rival to Edward and will risk everything to see her happy at last while the other wants her dead. Can Anne let her love for Edward threaten everything she has? Or will she need his help to protect her from the powerful enemies who mean to destroy her.
