Banished from his father’s house, forced from England by his brother, Richard Fitzwarren prepares to return from France to London, intent on making a life for himself in Tudor, England. Followed by his bastard brother, Jack, and a not-so-loyal band of mercenaries, he sells his services in order to help Northumberland place Lady Jane on the throne. Soon he finds himself not only embroiled in royal intrigue but prey to the sins his father committed.
