Loyalties are tested and battles are waged, until one side emerges victorious. But at what cost? This gripping story will leave you on the edge of your seat as you witness the downfall of a powerful ruler driven by ambition. Don't miss out on this riveting tale of ancient Ireland's most legendary queen.
