Princess Katherine is leaving her home and the only life she has ever known, to go to England. She knows that it is her duty to marry Prince Arthur, the son of the King Henry VII of England. She knows that it is the wish of her parents that she do so. And yet she cannot help being fearful, not knowing what to expect. Katherine has never left Spain before, and she has never met her future husband. She wonders how she will make herself understood as she knows no English. She will have to get by with French and Latin until she learns some of the language of the very foreign English people who will soon be her people.
On arrival in England, after a dreadful journey, Katherine begins the process of getting to know her new family. The king is a difficult man, hard to read and hard to please. His wife Elizabeth does her best to make Katherine feel welcome. Prince Arthur is a rather strange, quiet young man, pale and slightly sickly looking. His younger brother Henry is quite the opposite. Henry is robust, lively, very clever, and friendly towards his new prospective sister-in-law. The young Spanish princess and Henry soon become firm friends, enjoying each other's company.
After the marriage ceremony Katherine's life changes dramatically. She and Arthur go to live in Wales, in a remote and wild part of the country. The two young people barely begin to get acquainted before Arthur gets dreadfully sick, and suddenly Katherine finds herself a widow with an uncertain future in a foreign land. What will happen next?
