Elizabeth, already tainted by dishonor and tragedy, becomes queen to Henry the VII, the first Tudor king. Joan, a servant of the court, struggles against marriage and motherhood and is privy to the deepest and darkest secrets of her queen.

Like the ravens, Joan must use her eyes and senses to navigate the treacherous corridors of the Tower, where conspiracy whispers abound.
