Description
On 11th June 1488, two armies clashed at Sauchieburn, near Stirling. King James III's fate was sealed in the battle, and his army was routed. Sir Thomas Sempill of Ellestoun, Sheriff of Renfrew, fell among the dead.
The death of the king sent shockwaves through John Sempill's life. As the sole surviving son of the Sempill line, he had once seemed destined for a career as a knight and courtier. Now, his future was uncertain. With the new king on the throne, John must navigate treacherous politics to survive.
His path is fraught with danger, particularly in the presence of Lord Montgomerie, a ruthless and powerful figure who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. Can John Sempill find a way to win favour with the new king and secure his place in the court, or will he become another casualty of the treacherous world of medieval politics?
