Following the death of Henry VIII, his three children; Mary, Elizabeth and Edward are now pawns in a dangerous game.

A controversial masque leaves Edward and Mary at odds. Elizabeth finds herself in the middle as Mary demands she come live with her.

The Lord Protector’s plan for peace between the siblings only causes Catherine and Thomas to accelerate their own plans.

Elizabeth is sent to live in a house full of strangers with Kat's brother in law, where she is terrified of anyone finding out her secrets.

Elizabeth is determined to not fall into the same traps she did when last she was at Chelsea.

Thomas’ actions have implicated Elizabeth, and Elizabeth must clear her name as she is interrogated by the Lord Dudley.
