Synopsis
‘You want me to go to the execution?’
Kate shut her mind against the horror of it, said,
‘I shall scream with the rest.’
1598. The French Wars of Religion are drawing to an end, the Edict of Nantes establishing religious freedom in all but Paris.
For the exiled Adam and Kate Munro, the child Kate carries symbolizes a new life free from past troubles; despite a lingering nostalgia for Scotland and the friendship of the Montgomeries.
When Adam foils an attempt on the French king’s life his reward is a place at court for the whole family. But religious tensions remain high, and Paris holds dangers as well as delights.
For the Munros and Montgomeries alike, these are troubled times…
‘…fast-paced … a hugely satisfying read.’
Undiscovered Scotland.
