Summary
Winter shifts the balance of power at Chinon.
Eleanor of Aquitaine and Henry II find their long war rekindled by a secret that threatens succession, alliances, and the fragile balance among their sons. Richard, Geoffrey, and John circle like vultures, while Philip of France watches closely for an excuse to strike.
Legacy, leverage, and desire come to a head as Henry debates what he is willing to lose when love becomes a dangerous game, and Eleanor once again holds the most dangerous advantage of all.
