Scotland in 1692 is the scene of this historical romance which deals with the battle between the Campbells and the MacDonalds. It is a story of fierce loyalty and ruthless masacre as the MacDonalds delay in giving the Dutch King, William III, the loyalty oath he demands. History and fiction are well balanced here in this Highlands tragedy which will have a strong appeal to students of Celtic history and to enthusiasts of the tasteful historical novel.
