Irene thrives as a formidable seafaring bounty hunter, completely unaware that she was stolen from the royal nursery during an orchestrated abduction decades ago. When a lucrative contract leads her into the capital palace, she witnesses the despotic King Edmund and his concubine tormenting a frail, sedated woman who turns out to be her biological mother, Queen Isabella. Cutting through palace guards, Irene rescues her mother and vanishes into coastal waters to restore her health.
As Isabella regains her memories and reveals decades of royal treachery, Irene forms a formidable alliance with Prince Leon of a neighboring empire. Armed with naval firepower and evidence of national treason, she must overthrow the fraudulent monarch before his foreign mercenaries raze the realm.
