Salisbury 1232

An elderly nun is accused of witchcraft after a priest dies under mysterious circumstances. When the nun tells Ela something that could turn the king against Ela's nemesis, justiciar Hubert de Burgh, she knows she must whisper it in the king's ear. Ela finds herself in a race to save the nun's life as de Burgh tumbles from his lofty pedestal and chaos rattles the halls of power.
