By 1464 Ned Elder believes the worst of his family’s feud is behind him, but the peace is fragile. Edward IV summons him north to confront renewed Lancastrian resistance, and Ned soon discovers that old enemies have found new opportunities inside the Yorkist cause. A dispute with powerful commanders leaves him accused of treason and isolated in hostile country.

While Ned tries to survive long enough to clear his name, his sisters and pregnant wife remain exposed to enemies who have never accepted the outcome of the earlier feud. Political loyalty, private revenge and a dangerous royal secret tighten around the family at the same time, forcing the Elders to decide how much they are prepared to sacrifice for one another.
