Winter, 1539:
Too ill to travel from her London home, María de Salinas writes a letter to her daughter Katherine, the
young duchess of Suffolk. A letter telling of her life: a life intertwined with her friend and cousin Catalina
of Aragon, the youngest child of Isabel of Castile.
It is a letter to help her daughter understand the choices
she has made in her life, beginning from the time she
keeps her vow to Catalina
to share her life of exile in
England.
Friendship.
Betrayal.
Hatred.
Forgiveness.
Will love win out in the
end?
