All is well until the rival houses fall out and the warring commences. Impoverished after the defeat of Henry of Lancaster, Elizabeth gambles her wit and beauty for the heart of the Yorkist and she wins. But Elizabeth's pride, ambition and lust for gold becomes a trap. She is caught in one of history's most fascinating and sinister chapters, a time of passion, treachery and intrigue.
