In a foreign land, Emma must learn to navigate the complex world of Anglo-Saxon politics. As the Danes threaten England's fragile peace, Emma is torn between her Danish heritage and her duty as queen. When Cnut, a young Danish prince, arrives on English soil, he not only challenges the kingdom-but also finds a place in Emma's heart and family.
