It is 1344 and Al the minstrel believes she has everything: a job she loves, a wealthy man who loves her and a promising future. But there is a problem - she lives a lie. Her father insists she dress as a lad so she can work as a minstrel. Her lover, Sir Roulf, believes she is the daughter of a wealthy merchant. When her father finds out about her double life he insists there is only thing to do. Heartbroken, Al is forced to flee the castle and village, leaving behind everything she has ever known and loved. As they cross into Devonshire Al's hope for survival rests with the huge church in Ottery, where she must enter a world where women are forbidden, by becoming a church musician. If her secret is discovered she and her father face starvation and ruin. Her father is bent on self-destruction, a personal tragedy threatens to tear her apart and new friends make her question her priorities. Can Al find the strength to live the life she wants before her father destroys everything she has ever loved?
