The narrative follows Roger Williams, a pivotal figure in colonial America, who rises from obscurity to serve as a clerk for the renowned jurist Sir Edward Coke. Set against the backdrop of Jacobean London, he experiences the harsh realities of political intrigue, including the Star Chamber's excesses and the execution of dissenters. Driven by ambition and a forbidden love, Williams escapes to New England, only to confront a new form of repression disguised as conformity. This beautifully crafted tale explores themes of ambition, love, and the quest for freedom.
