Can an ordinary village girl dream of becoming a queen? Gwendilen was sent to a monastery by her parents, not hoping she would ever marry. However, when she found a precious crown on the shore of a lake, she believed her life could change.
But she didn’t yet know that for everything she would have to pay—and the price might be too high. This story has an atmosphere of the Middle Ages, a morally ambiguous heroine, a realistic world, and characters who aren’t perfect, but could still be a little better than others. In the end, evil deeds don’t go unpunished—but no one gets a happy ending.
