Savage and royal, Queen Gomatrude and her daughter Malgven are the center of Merovingian King Dagobert's court. Too pagan for his inner circle's liking, the Queen finds herself politically usurped by a younger bride. When Gomatrude is burned as a witch, Dagobert's rage plunges him into years of uncontrolled savagery and hedonism.

At his daughter's coming of age, she returns to court, taming the Merovingian lion towards a more gentle rule. Relieved at this unexpected turn of events, Dagobert's advisors still regard Malgven's influence with suspicion and resentment. 

Upon her father's demise, Malgven flees to the Breton kingdom attempting to escape being used as a political pawn. Here she encounter's another savage lion to tame, the young, gallant King Judicael of the Bretons.

Pagan conversion to Christianity is at its peak and the Patriarchal Catholic Church has gained a strong foothold in the Frankish and English Kingdoms. Rapidly, the Clergy are becoming fed up with the power and influence these women have over their men…
