Description

Lady Catherine is among Queen Elizabeth's preferred courtroom maidens—until her forbidden love with Sir Walter Ralegh is found. In a bitter twist of irony, the jealous king banishes Cate to Ralegh's nest of Roanoke, in the Brand New World. Ralegh promises in the future for Cate, but Cate starts to doubt his love and his offer, whilst the weeks extend. Alternatively it's Manteo, a Croatoan Indian, whom the colonists—and Cate—increasingly change to.
