Eagerly-awaited third volume in the Munro saga. 1598. The French Wars of Religion are drawing to an end, the Edict of Nantes establishing religious freedom in all but Paris.1598. The exiled Adam and Kate Munro are looking forward to a new life free from past troubles, despite their lingering nostalgia for Scotland and the friendship of the Montgomeries. But when the family are called to court they find that religious tensions remain high, and Paris holds dangers as well as delights. For the Munros and Montgomeries alike, these are troubled times... A tumultuous tale of pride and folly, loyalty and betrayal, political manouvreings at both the French and Scottish courts, treachery and peril, and ultimately justice; set against the backdrop of the closing years of the 16th century and the continuing antagonism between the Cunninghames and Montgomeries which has plagued Scotland for more than 100 years.
