Kicking off this mesmerizing narrative is the age-old mystery that has confounded historians for generations: the enigmatic disappearance of King Edward V in 1483.

Readers will find themselves irresistibly drawn into this web of intrigue, where history's secret corridors conceal shocking conspiracies that threatened to reshape the world.
As the story unfolds, the spotlight shifts to a beloved figure in American folklore, Washington Irving's Headless Horseman, from the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

Her quest for vengeance leads her to the shores of America in pursuit of her husband's murderer, and the narrative takes a haunting turn. During her arrival on May 19, 1780, New England witnesses an inexplicable phenomenon—the darkening of the skies for nearly 24 hours, a nearly forgotten event in our recorded history. In a narrative twist as chilling as it is evocative, readers will be transported to a time when legends walked among us and the line between history and myth is blurred.
