The appearance of a daughter he didn't know existed has Cromwell rethinking his life, even as he must help the king cope with the loss of his wife and organize a new, advantageous marriage.

While Henry starts to despair of having a son with Jane Seymour, rebels in the north cause further despondency – and rage, which searches for a scapegoat in his court. 

The king tasks Cromwell with finding beneficial matches for his daughter and niece, but a secret affair is soon discovered, while Cromwell revisits a figure from his past as a servant of the cardinal. 

Anne of Boleyn is gone, but new dangers await Thomas Cromwell, who must now reconcile King Henry to his daughter Mary, despite their disagreement over the Church of England. 

King Henry VIII has decided he wants to marry Jane Seymour, but first his trusted advisor must dethrone Anne Boleyn.
