King of Hearts

Fiction Series 8 x 52'

“A king can protect. A king can corrupt. This is the story of a prince who discovered both.”

In a divided nation, a shy young prince is crowned king against his will. As he’s drawn into family crises, colonial unrest, political manipulation and the corruption of power, he must transform from a ceremonial puppet into an independent leader, before others decide the course of his reign for him.
