Synopsis: |
Set amid the warring and intrigues of 16th century Scotland, this fast-paced romance is the story of one woman's quest for happiness. Witch-hunts and the lecherous Zechariah Black force apart fiery heroine and chief's daughter, Mairi Lismore from nobleman and heir to Duntorin Castle, Douglas Roskill, the man she loves. Sent to the Royal Court of James VI in Edinburgh, passionate Mairi enjoys the heady lifestyle, especially when Douglas pursues her there. But she soon discovers that its gaiety and glitter hide deep treachery and the ruthless ambition of Robert Boswell, who determines to have her for himself at any cost. Treason, diabolical revenge and plague all conspire to keep Mairi and Douglas apart. This is a gripping historical love story which moves from the lawless fringes of the Scottish Highlands to the dangers and intrigues of the Court in Edinburgh. |
