England, 1503. After Emeline's mother died nine years ago, she had no father to go to and was taken under the custody of her morally corrupt aunt. Now, serving as a kitchen maid at Richmond Palace in an attempt to help support herself, little money is coming in and the desire for adventure versus the need to survive is overpowering on her young mind. 

However, when Gilbert Hodges, the son of an insolvent merchant, arrives at the palace in search of work in order to repay his father's debts, the murder of six servants soon follows, and Emeline cannot deny that the atmosphere in the palace has shifted, and has become somewhat frightening. 

Constantly chasing after the mysterious newcomer who seems to never be where he should be and anywhere where he shouldn't be, Emeline suddenly suspects that he may have something to go with the killings after another six servants are found dead. 

But the news of a treasure allegedly lost in a mysterious fire may be able to change everything, but whether that change is for the better or the worse is yet to be discovered...

The king's magnificent palace was built in a matter of weeks. No one saw the builders, no villagers are allowed beyond the gilded gate, and only one servant has ever left. The haunted look in her eyes as she was recaptured by the palace guards is something Josie, daughter of the village doctor, has never forgotten. For Josie, the palace is a mystery that grows more intriguing after she meets the captain of the guards, a man known only as Hammer, as mysterious and captivating as the palace itself. Whispers of magic fuel Josie's desire to uncover the truth, but an ordinary girl like her can only dream of ever being invited inside. When the king decides to take a wife from among the eligible daughters of the noble families, the palace gates are finally thrown open and the kingdom's elite pour in. In a court where old rivalries and new jealousies collide, the king's favorite is poisoned and the doctor is summoned. As her father's assistant, Josie finally sees inside the lavish walls, but she soon learns the palace won't surrender its secrets easily, for not a single resident, from the lowest servant to the king himself, has a memory from before the palace existed. In the search for the truth, Josie is drawn deeper into danger, and the answers she seeks might shake the very foundations of the kingdom.
