A noblewoman infiltrates the palace as the heir's unwilling bride to expose her mother's murderers.
Isabella's exact likeness to Margaret, the Earl's cast-off bastard, becomes a death sentence when scandal ruins Margaret's royal betrothal. Margaret compels her legitimate half-sister into the heir's bed as a living decoy. Isabella crosses the palace threshold feigning terror while cataloging every whispered alliance and hidden blade. The forced intimacy that should have silenced her instead grants access to the corridors where her mother's death was plotted. Each courtier's smile masks a dagger; every invitation tests whether she will uncover the truth or join the ghosts haunting the throne room.
