In Renaissance France, two queens—mother and daughter—clash in a battle that shapes a kingdom’s fate.
Catherine de’ Medici, a ruthless powerbroker, ruled France for decades. Her daughter, Marguerite de Valois, the free-spirited “Queen Margot,” defied her at every turn. When Catherine forces Marguerite into an arranged marriage with a Protestant, then orchestrates a massacre at the wedding, she ignites a conflict that threatens to tear both France and their family apart.
As treachery, espionage, and betrayal swirl through the court, mother and daughter become fierce adversaries, each fighting for control and survival.
Will their bitter rivalry destroy the realm, or will one queen triumph over the other?
