Edward II of England is absorbed with his favourite, Peter Gaveston, while his young wife, Isabella, is with child.

Amaury de Craon, Philip's Master of Secrets, is despatched to carry out his deadly deeds and Edward II summons Sir Hugh Corbett, Keeper of the Secret Seal, to intercept. Both master spies lodge at the Benedictine abbey of St Michael's in the forest of Ashdown.

However, shortly after their arrival, the diamond is stolen and its guardian murdered.
