The first in a new series of mystery novels set in Scotland in the 14th Century - the time of Braveheart and Robert the Bruce

With meticulous attention to detail, thirteenth-century Edinburgh is brought to life in this engrossing and enthralling Medieval mystery from much-loved author Candace Robb. Intrigue coupled with vivid characterisation and expert plotting all serve to make this a perfect read for fans of Ellis Peters, S J Parris, Conn Iggulden and Bernard Cornwell.

'Brilliant -- Robb presents a feisty new heroine who proves to be no fool' -- Woman & Home
'This is history as it should be told!' -- GoodBook Guide
'History and mystery at their best' -- Northern Echo

WHEN TRYING TO UNTANGLE A VICIOUS WEB OF SECRETS, WHO CAN YOU TRUST?

1297: Young wife Margaret Kerr is desperately afraid. Her merchant husband Roger has been missing since Martinmas. Has he been caught up in the swelling rebellion against the English? Is he even alive?

Jack Sinclair, her husband's cousin, has pledged to try to locate Roger in the city. When he is found stabbed to death, Margaret resolves she must ride to Edinburgh herself to uncover the truth.

But Scotland is a country at war, Edinburgh an occupied city: it is no place for a woman alone.

Margaret's mission is frowned upon, her arrival at her uncle's tavern unwelcome. And when she starts to ask questions, she finds a city rife with closely guarded secrets and dangerous loyalties. Soon violence erupts outside the tavern and there is murder on their doorstep.

Margaret discovers how little she had known either of Roger or Jack...
