Enigmatic, flamboyant and unpredictable, with a passion for philosophy and the arts, Sweden’s Queen Christina seeks to make her country the most sophisticated in Europe. But her personal aspirations – and her unconventional sexuality – put her profoundly at odds with her culture’s expectations of her, both as a monarch and as a woman.

In a desperate bid to restore their ruined fortunes by pursuing wealthy women, Mr. Archer courts the unhappily married Mrs. Sullen while Mr. Aimwell dallies with her sister-in-law, Dorinda. But the two beaux aren’t the only ones with larcenous designs – nor do they realize that their own hearts might be susceptible to ensnarement.
