In 997 CE, as England grapples with attacks from the Welsh and Vikings, the absence of a clear rule of law leads to chaos. Amidst this turmoil, three characters' lives become intertwined.

A Norman noblewoman, marrying for love, follows her husband to a new land, only to discover that the customs are vastly different and that everyone is embroiled in a relentless struggle for power, where a single misstep could have dire consequences. Meanwhile, a monk aspires to elevate his humble abbey into a renowned center of learning admired across Europe. Each character confronts a cunning and ruthless bishop determined to amass wealth and power at any cost. This prequel to a beloved novel explores a rich historical landscape filled with ambition, rivalry, love, and conflict, ultimately leading to the events of the original story.
