Trama

1402. Queen Margrete is ruling Sweden, Norway and Denmark through her adopted son, Erik. But a conspiracy is in the making and Margrete finds herself in an impossible dilemma that could shatter her life's work: the Kalmar Union.

The year is 1402. Margrete has achieved what no man has managed before: She has gathered Denmark, Norway, and Sweden into a peace-oriented union, which she single-handedly rules through her adopted young son Erik. But the union is beset by enemies, so Margrete is planning a marriage between Erik and an English princess. An alliance with England should secure the union's status as an emerging European power, but a breathtaking conspiracy is underway that could tear Margrete and everything she believes in apart.
