Publisher's Synopsis
It is the summer of 1679, and the safe world everyone has always known has become dangerous, everything they have been taught to believe in is treasonous, and the Covenanters have been routed by government troops at the Battle of Bothwell Brig. Here, Smith brings to life this notorious period of history that culminated in William of Orange coming to Britain in 1688, the consequences of which are still felt in Scotland and Ireland today.
