A paid assassin is sent to murder a king. A mysterious knight flees to the countryside, hotly pursued by the Queen’s men. Two teenagers witness an incident in the woods that will change the course of a nation. Ken Follett’s worldwide bestseller, World Without End, comes to life as a monumental eight-hour event series.
Times are tougher than ever. England is on the brink of devastating war with France that will last over a hundred years, and a terrible plague is spreading that will wipe out a third of Europe’s population before it is done.

With her lover Merthin, she builds a community in Kingsbridge that stands up to The Church and The Crown.
