À Londres, vers le milieu du XVIe siècle, le jeune Edouard, Prince de Galles et fils d'Henry VIII, aimerait échapper à l'étiquette de la Cour et s'amuser au-dehors avec des enfants de son âge.

Le destin fera se rencontrer les deux enfants qui s'échangeront leurs "rôles" respectifs, non sans risques, car le Comte d'Hertford complote contre le Trône : il tente de faire assassiner le Prince à la faveur de son escapade et de prendre Tom, devenu Edward, sous sa coupe. L'intervention d'un mercenaire, Miles Hendon, permettra de faire échouer cette conspiration.
