On the Welsh marches in the age of the Third Crusade, Eveline Berenger is orphaned when the Welsh attack her father’s castle of the Garde Doloureuse. Rescued by the great baron Hugo de Lacy, she is betrothed to him, but he leaves for the Holy Land and entrusts her to his young nephew Damian, and her vow is put to the test.
