In Nottinghamshire, the new High Sheriff rules with an iron fist, and the people are suffering. Lady Robin of Locksley opposes the injustice, but she is fighting a losing battle.
Forced off her lands, Robin finds refuge in Sherwood Forest, hiding amidst a band of outlaws. From the depths of the greenwood, she plans her next move, but can a mere noblewoman defeat the men of rank who seek to dominate her and destroy her home?
