Set in 1660 London, the story follows Barbara Villiers Palmer, a striking Royalist beauty who captures the heart of King Charles Stuart upon his return to the throne. As his mistress and confidante, she rises to become the uncrowned queen of the Restoration court, gaining wealth and power. However, her position is fraught with danger, as she navigates a world filled with rivals and enemies vying for influence. Barbara's cleverness and allure make her a figure of both admiration and envy in a tumultuous political landscape.
