For the young Ilario, life has not been predictable or easy. Born with a terrible secret, abandoned on the steps of a chapel, Ilario is found by Federico, an impoverished Iberian noble who plans to offer the foundling to King Roderigo to curry favor. Years later, the teenaged Ilario joins the court as the King's Freak, where another surprise awaits… Rosamunda, wife of the king's most powerful advisor, has arrived, and is determined to keep the mystery of her child's shameful birth hidden at all costs--even murder.
