To temporarily appease her husbandās cruel nature, she intends to provide him with an heirābut that, too, will end in sorrow.

As famine sweeps Ireland, Gracelin openly defies her husband by feeding the desperate souls who come to their door. In secret, she also sides with the rebels who call themselves the Young Irelanders.
