A young Prince unsure of his place in the world; his distant father is dead, his loving but fierce mother is on the throne. Alberon has enemies on all sides, and seemingly within as well, for the Emperor's death would be labelled suspicious by some. The Empresses policies, though efficient, are cruelly pragmatic, and the Prince feels helpless at what he must bear witness to. With the help of his friends, Royal Librarian Charlotte, his trusty valet Dio, and the sympathetic and talented Lady Cassandra Beresford, as well as inspiration from Little Bryony the orphan girl, can Prince Aidan truly begin to make a difference, and change his nation for the better?
