Following generations of fighting, a fragile peace has been established, but Richard’s self-serving manipulation, disruption and ambition for the crown threatens the lives of everyone around him.

Queens, mothers and wives – grieving and angry – find solace in sisterhood and turn to curses for their revenge. Can the factions resolve their inherited conflicts before the whole country is deceived and destroyed?

‘True hope is swift, and flies with swallow’s wings; Kings it makes gods, and meaner creatures kings.’
