Augston is a country tenuously balanced between supporters of the king and supporters of the emperor, so when the king changes his normal plans for Easter, Eric Von Wolfsburg suspects him of treachery. His wife not only suspects treachery, but that Eric's old nemesis, Ludovic Von Phaler-Graf, plans to sack their home while everyone else is distracted. They summon Brynhild, Alfred, Karl and Bigitte to sniff out what those two intend.
Our four heroes set off on their separate missions: Karl and Alfred to investigate the king's plans, Brynhild and Bigitte to discover Ludovic's. What all four find is a nefarious plot far worse than anything Eric or his wife can imagine. Can they stop it on time?
