As a lady-in-waiting to Catherine of Aragon, the fervently determined daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella, Eva finds herself engulfed in the customs and complexities of the Tudor court. With each stage of the journey, she witnesses not just the opulence of the English monarchy, but also the shifting tides of loyalty and betrayal that shape the lives of those around her.
