A Lost Lady of Old Years Summary

A Lost Lady of Old Years by John Buchan

Once described as 'a tale of adventure and betrayal on the long bloody road to Culloden Moor', A Lost Lady of Old Years is set in Scotland during the Rebellion of '45. Young Edinburgh-born Francis Birkenshaw cares nothing for the Jacobite cause until an encounter with the beautiful wife of Bonnie Prince Charlie's secretary, Mrs Margaret Murray, leads to a dangerous involvement with her husband, John Murray of Broughton, an infamous turncoat. A dark and compelling portrayal of the Jacobite Rebellion.

A Lost Lady of Old Years Reviews
