In 1758 Joseon, eighteen-year-old Baek-hyeon, known as Hyeon, has few opportunities because she is an illegitimate daughter. Through determination and study, she earns a position as a palace nurse, hoping that her hard work might finally earn her estranged father's approval.

But Hyeon's relatively quiet life changes dramatically when four women are murdered in a single night.

Even worse, Hyeon's beloved mentor and closest friend, Nurse Jeongsu, becomes the prime suspect.

Hyeon refuses to believe that her mentor is guilty.

Determined to prove her innocence, she secretly begins investigating the murders herself.

Her investigation leads her to Eojin, a young police inspector who is also searching for the killer. Although the two don't immediately trust each other, they realize they may need to work together.

Then the investigation takes an even more dangerous turn:

Evidence begins pointing toward the Crown Prince himself.

Hyeon and Eojin must search the darkest corners of the palace while navigating a world where almost everyone has something to hide.
