Myles Morgan begins life as a serf but discovers that he is heir to an English noble family, a revelation that carries him into the dangerous world of Henry VIII’s court. His new position brings opportunity and responsibility just as religious controversy intensifies around the king’s marriage and the work of reformers such as William Tyndale. The novel follows Myles from youth into adulthood as inheritance, faith and loyalty are tested by the early English Reformation.
