Prince Michael and his valet Paddy encounter a mysterious young woman named Iris trapped under the spell of the Black Witch Madame Blackheart—and when a enchanted raven inadvertently eliminates a band of dangerous robbers, the trio finds themselves on the road to Santa Lucia, where a clever princess has challenged suitors to answer an impossible riddle or lose their heads. Michael accepts the dangerous wager, and when the princess resorts to supernatural trickery to steal the answer, he must rely on the very events that freed Iris to prove his wit is a match for hers.

A fearless youth sets out to master the art of trembling—convinced that shivering and shaking is a skill everyone else possesses and he alone lacks.

Will his quest finally teach him the fear he's been chasing all along?
