England. 1553. Young King Edward is terminally ill, and the country is virtually ruled by the Duke of Northumberland, who wants to enthrone his eldest son. Fourteen-year-old Hannah Green and her father, who fled the Spanish Inquisition, are trying to establish their lives in London. By chance, the girl meets the handsome and charismatic Robert Dudley, the Duke's youngest son. Having learned that Hannah has the ability to foresee the future, Robert arranges her to be a jester in the King's retinue and makes her spy in favor of the Dudley family. Hannah then plays the same roles at the court of Queen Mary and then Princess Elizabeth. Under threat of accusations of heresy, treason and witchcraft, Hannah must choose between the safe life of a commoner and the dangerous intrigues of the royal family, which are inextricably linked to her own aspirations and desires
