August 1781. Tom Boyd returns in disgrace from France to his family
in Scotland. He manages to find a job with a wealthy Ayrshire
merchant, but just as his personal and professional prospects seem
to be improving, his life is put in danger when he discovers
someone in the firm is involved in smuggling. Shortly after he
intervenes to protect a young woman who is being assaulted, he is
accused of murder. With his family and friends he must race against
time to find the culprit and escape the gallows. Alex Wright crafts
a believable tale in the dialogue and flavour of the late 18th
century that will appeal to fans of the period in this very
Scottish novel.
