Synopsis:

1564: Catholic herald Clarenceux King of Arms, is the custodian of a highly dangerous document. When it is stolen, Clarenceux immediately suspects a group of Catholic sympathizers. Francis Walsingham, the ruthless protégé of the queen's Principal Secretary, Sir William Cecil, intercepts a coded message from the Knights to a Countess known to have Catholic leanings. He is convinced that Clarenceux is trying to use the document to advance the cause of the Catholic Queen. Conflict and fear, compounded by the religious doubts of the time, conceal a persistent mystery. The roots of betrayal are deep and shocking.
