William Marshal's prowess and loyalty as a knight in the English royal household has been rewarded by marriage to Isabelle de Clare, heiress to great estates in England, Normandy and Ireland. The couple's contentment and security is shattered when King Richard dies. He is succeeded by his brother John who takes the Marshals's sons hostage and seizes their lands. The conflict between remaining loyal and rebelling over these injustices threatens to tear William and Isabelle's marriage apart and ruin their lives.
