In the time of King Henry VIII and the Inquisition, at the height of the Renaissance and the great holy wars between East and West, a Christian, a Muslim, and a Jew worked together to save thousands from death.
Agata always dreamed of getting married. Growing up in a small Slavic village meant she might not have a great house or a fine tower to live in, but she'd have children and happiness, and she could make her mark on the world.
Those dreams are torn away when she is kidnapped and enslaved. But Agata is still determined to weave a life of happiness for herself. As she navigates an unfamiliar culture and country, she rises to a position greater than she had ever dared hope for—giving her the power to change the world.
Across the continent, Graçia is a widow too soon, fending off far too many marriage proposals for herself and her daughter. Every monarch in Europe wants a piece of the largest fortune in the world, but Graçia is determined to use her enormous wealth to make a difference by continuing the clandestine underground movement her husband began.
And when the richest woman in the world and the greatest Sultana of the Ottoman court finally meet, they hatch their grandest plan yet.
How many people could they save? What could they build? What mark could they make on the world…if the world would let them?
