1283: As Edward I completes his conquest of Wales, the Welsh Crown Jewels vanish without a trace. Since the Norman Invasion, the Honours of Gwynedd have symbolised Welsh resistance and identity. Seven centuries later, their whereabouts remain a mystery.

Except to one man.

Modern Day: A veteran politician is attacked in the dead of night. His assailants, a violent group whose origins are said to date to the days of Owain Glyndŵr. They are the inheritors of the Tripartite Indenture, upholders of an ancient agreement that seeks the jewels’ recovery at any price . . .

Even regicide.

For Mike Hansen of the White Hart, the politician’s disappearance is the worst start to his holiday. Yet when the missing man’s niece Cerys Morgan is the target of a second attack, a clear motive emerges.

A priceless treasure remains missing. One with the potential to unite or to destroy. With the investiture of the new Prince and Princess of Wales just days away, Hansen and Morgan face a race against time to solve the clues her uncle left behind. Success may save an innocent man’s life. Yet the cost of failure is unthinkable . . .

The very future of the United Kingdom is at stake!
