A novel of Scotlandβs Black Douglas. Set during those desperate years after the death of William Wallace, whose legend was portrayed in the movie Braveheart,this thrilling 14th-century epic relives Scotland's struggle for freedom and survival against the first three King Edwards of England.

Here is the little-known story of the star-crossed love, spiritual intrigue, and heroic sacrifice that saved Scotland and inspired the American Declaration of Independence centuries later.
