Set against the backdrop of medieval England's Age of Chivalry, the narrative explores the lives of five queens from the Plantagenet dynasty between 1299 and 1399. This tumultuous period witnessed significant events like the Hundred Years' War and the Peasants' Revolt, alongside the breakdown of feudalism. The queens—Marguerite, Isabella, Philippa, Anne, and Isabella—each navigated personal and political challenges, from dethroning kings to early deaths, revealing the complex interplay of power, love, and societal upheaval in their extraordinary lives.
