Scotland 1546. A group of nobles seize St Andrews Castle foiling all attempts to re-take it. Local lad Will is among them, fighting for the Protestant cause. His traitorous activities place his family in grave danger, forcing his sister Bethia into an unwelcome alliance. As the long siege unravels, Bethia and Will struggle over where their loyalties lie and the choice they each must make – whether to save their family, or stay true to their beliefs and follow their hearts.
This debut novel closely follows the true historical events of the siege of St Andrews Castle, and its dramatic re-taking.
