First Edition
In exile in Holland, Hugh Herriot recalls the exploits of his youth as a follower of Bonnie Dundee who tried to win back Scotland for the Catholic King James and whose death during a victorious battle proved to be a final blow for the Jacobite cause.
When young Hugh Herriot first met John Graham of Claverhouse, the legendary heroic leader of the King’s cavalry in Scotland, he knew his life would never be the same. Some said ”Bloody Claver’se” was in league with the devil – but Hugh was determined to follow the dashing soldier anywhere. Joining Claverhouse – Bonnie Dundee – meant turning against his own family, religious rebels called Covenanters, who were terrorizing the land. It meant fighting battles that would decide the fate of his king and country – and that were more harrowing than he could have imagined.
Most of all it meant leaving Darklis, the beautiful, mysterious girl who shared his secrets – and his love.
