Life on beautiful Saint Ferdinand Island is paradoxical. For citizens, it is wealthy and idyllic, a place to escape the worries of the outside world. For the DeGrazia monarchy that governs it, the island is a calling and a duty, one that has required personal sacrifices for hundreds of years. When Queen Clara becomes monarch in a time of national tragedy, she must hide her grief in order to govern the island and protect it in the face of threats from outsiders who would destabilize it. To do this she is embroiled in a web of espionage that has protected the island for years and is drawn into a forbidden romance with the man meant to protect her and the monarchy. The choices she makes impact everyone and start a chain of events she hopes will save them all. After tragedy again strikes the DeGrazia monarchy, Saint Ferdinand Island is faced with a crisis that threatens to destroy the monarchy itself. It seems that a miracle is needed - or is it?
