At the center of Byzantine society, fifteen-year old orphaned Anna Dalassena lives with her grandparents among the most powerful men and women in Constantinople. But the cutthroat imperial politics of the Great Palace sends the family into exile in a distant corner of the empire. Her bleak situation turns promising after meeting the handsome young soldier, John Comnenus and his brother Isaac, before they are finally permitted to return home.

The vicious power struggles, uprising, and betrayals at the highest levels of them empire push Anna and John unwillingly into its center as they struggle to deal with their own tragedies. When rebellion puts her life and those of everyone she loves at risk, is the reward - a throne for her family - too big a gamble?
