anotace: The bewitching and beautiful Mary Queen of Scots is forced to flee her country from the dangerous Scottish rebels that threaten her life. Encouraged by Cecil, her chief spy, Queen Elizabeth sends Mary to a desolate castle where she finds herself imprisoned as the enforced guest of George Talbot and his determined new wife, Bess of Hardwick. The couple welcome the doomed queen, certain that this will bring them nothing but advantage in the competitive world of Tudor England. To their horror they find that their home becomes the epicentre of intrigue against Elizabeth. Even their loyalty comes under suspicion, as George's hopeless admiration for the beautiful Mary is increasingly impossible to hide. Will Mary enrapture and manipulate all those around her, or is she merely a misunderstood Queen, eager to get back to her rightful throne? In Tudor England when the hangman's noose is tied all too easily, disobeying the monarchy is a folly to be avoided.
