Windsor Castle. 1714. Queen Anne is nearing the end of a life
filled with tragedy and grief: plagued by illness and cursed by her
father to lose all 17 of her children, she now lies dying with no
living heir. The question of succession is thick in the air. Will
it be James Stuart, the half-brother she has always refused to
acknowledge? Or George of Hanover, the cousin who once turned her
down for marriage? Neither is ideal: she hates them both. Over the
course of one night at the Queen's Elizabethan ball, courtiers,
politicians and ladies' maids alike seize the opportunity to steer
the succession to their own advantage, changing the course of
history forever. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to them, imperial spy
Daniel Defoe creeps through the castle gathering intelligence on
their every move for the Earl of Oxford. Before the night is over,
Queen Anne will finally have to face the past-for nothing can be
resolved until she comes to terms with her children's deaths and
repairs the terrible wrong she committed many years before...
