In a kingdom torn apart by war and political intrigue, William Whitton must navigate a treacherous landscape of political machinations and conflict.

Back in the capital, Serwyn, under the guidance of William’s step-father, begins to impose oppressive laws in an effort to limit the power of the barons and consolidate power, pushing the kingdom to the brink of rebellion. Torn between his duty to his family and his responsibility to his people, William faces shifting allegiances and uncertain loyalties as he tries to learn what it means to be a leader of men.
