Ingår i serienRob Roy and the MacGregors (book 3)
In 1745 the Highlanders limped away from the bitter field of Culloden. Soon the Duke of Cumberland was offering a huge sum for the capture of Prince Charles Edward Stuart, dead or alive. Duncan MacGregor, great-nephew of Rob Roy, volunteers to join the small band of men escorting the Prince to safety. Just one day after the Prince's escape, a large amount of French gold is landed at the very spot from which he has sailed. Thus it is that Duncan becomes involved in a desperate attempt to save Prince Charlie's gold, helped by beautiful, headstrong Caroline Cameron. 'Through his imaginative dialogue, he provides a voice for Scotland's heroes' Scotland on Sunday Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

Like the other books in this trilogy, it reads very quickly and contains moments of levity. The realities of wartime are easier to bear in this book—while there is talk of pillage and rapine, thankfully none of the female characters we follow in this book experience it directly. Instead, the focus is more on dividing loyalties, the corrupting power of gold, and the struggle between short-term needs and long-term desires. The trilogy as a whole is good. ( )
