1601. Queen Elizabeth I dies without leaving the heir. The main candidate for the throne is the king of Scotland Yakov VI, but there is one problem. The queen"s spies - hardened by long religious wars - are afraid that Jacob is not the one for whom he gives himself out. He claims that it is true to Protestantism, but perhaps it secretly professes Catholicism, and in this case forty years of suffering will be in vain, which threatens new bloodshed. Time is leaving, and London is faced with an almost impossible issue: how to check what Jacob really believes in? And then the spy of the Queen Jeffrey Belllock finds a way to get into the soul of the future king. He hires Mahmoud Ezzedin, a Muslim doctor, who became a victim of intrigues in his homeland and abandoned in England during the last diplomatic embassy from the Ottoman Empire. Ezzedin is a stranger on this cold and rainy island. Local raspings are unimportant, and he will do everything to return home, to his wife and son
