This book has it all, romance, subterfuge, and adventure. It is set amidst an important era of Scottish history and manages to both educate and excite. It is a book that every church goer should read. It is especially relevant in an age where religious bigotry still raises its head. Apart from being a thoroughly good read it is also an attempt to sensitively look at the Reformation against the broad sweep of Scottish history. As befits all good books the ending is especially worth waiting for !!!
