Queen Catherine of Aragon is awaiting the start of the Legatine Court, summoned to pronounce on her marriage to King Henry VIII.
The queen asks her trusted lady-in-waiting, Thomasin Marwood, to attend for her, to be her eyes and ears throughout the proceedings.
But Thomasin has her own problems. Her sister Cecelia has fallen pregnant while her husband Sir Hugh Truegood is absent, and now the Marwoods are disgraced.
Thomasin is expecting a proposal of marriage from courtier Rafe Danvers, but she is worried this scandal could jeopardise things.
And when an old spark returns to court, she starts to wonder if she is making the right decision.
As Queen Catherine falls out of favour, those not on the side of the king’s mistress, Anne Boleyn, could be in danger.
Could this be the end for the Marwood family? Can Thomasin rescue her reputation?
And will the outcome of the royal marriage change the course of history forever ?
