The Battle of Towton, March 1461.
In the aftermath of England’s bloodiest battle, Bethany Mortimer leaves Towton Hall, her beloved husband, and newly crowned Edward IV in search of those who continue their treachery. Making her way to Warwick Castle, she reunites with her loyal retainers to track those who would see the House of York destroyed.
