England is fracturing under the weight of corrupt leadership. Growing up as the daughter of the Sheriff of Nottingham, 16-year-old Marian has always felt a responsibility for her people. When the dishonorable authorities in England begin to raise taxes, murder indiscriminately, and beat innocent children in her streets, Marian faces a choice: staying safe and watching quietly, or speaking out and standing against the injustice that she sees at the risk of her own life. Farther north in England, 15-year-old Lucy sees her parents die at the cruel hands of Prince John. Running from her grief, she sets out on a quest to protect others from the horrible fate her own family suffered at the hands of the unjust rulers of England. As these two girls' lives intertwine, will they be able to make a difference for the people, or will injustice prevail?
