Years after their marriage, King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem and his beloved queen, Hyacintha of Argos, rule a kingdom balanced precariously between peace and peril. Their love, once kindled in youth, now flourishes within the golden walls of the palace, strengthened by hardship and crowned by their spirited daughter, Princess Nuala.
But when a violent raid led by the ruthless Egyptian outlaw Hakim tears Hyacintha from the safety of her home, Jerusalem descends into chaos. As the queen is held captive among other stolen women and children, forced to witness cruelty and injustice, Baldwin must navigate war, politics, and heartbreak.
As blood is spilled and secrets rise, the strength of a king's heart is tested, and a queen's resolve shines through pain and fire. Through battles and betrayals, they fight not only for each other-but for the soul of their kingdom.
