*******************************************************************
Scotland has been torn apart by civil war and the young and passionate Catholic Mary Queen of Scots is in the hands of her enemies.
Under duress, Mary abdicates in favour of her son, James VI, and fleeing to England, she boldly seeks refuge from her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I.
But Elizabeth has never trusted the ambitious Mary, and consequently has her imprisoned. So begins a treacherous battle between two of history's most powerful and ruthless women. Without once meeting her cousin, Mary is held captive for nineteen years, whilst Elizabeth rules in the shadow of countless Catholic plots against her life...
