Description
Set against the tumultuous backdrop of 17th century Scotland's Killing Times, this gripping novel brings to life the pivotal summer of 1679. As tensions between the King and rebellious Ministers escalate, ordinary people find themselves drawn into the conflict.
The story follows John Steel as he becomes embroiled in a desperate struggle for freedom and faith in his rural community. From the Battle of Drumclog to the Battle of Bothwell Bridge, the fate of southern Scotland hangs in the balance, and John's platoon of farmers and villagers must confront the harsh realities of war.
This powerful and evocative tale powerfully reflects the changes that took place across 17th century Scotland, and brings a stunningly vivid portrayal of this pivotal period in history to life.
