In 18th century Philippines, Gurián’s 16-year-old Crown Princess Juliza sees her privileged life fall apart: Rumátag – her first love – betrays her, the Council overthrows her father, and her family flees into exile. Just as she forges a new life – and love – in the Spanish settlement of Intramuros, her ailing father’s arrest for treason shatters this calm. The only way to get him out is to join forces with Rumátag on a dangerous mission.
