Each alternate chapter takes place in 1369 DR Faerun time. The others consist of points in Corymrean history where the kingdom was at stake (as it is in "present" time). The book is a mystery of sorts, and while I generally don't like books that jump around in place or time (and honestly I got a little disillusioned with the flashback chapters toward the middle), as you get toward the end the history begins to contribute more and more to the plot, and you start to see the mystery unravel. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the read overall and I'd recommend it even if you're not reading to learn more about Cormyr's history (which it's also great for).
