Gleam in the North

The Highlands lie quiet after Culloden, but the old loyalties smolder beneath the ash. Six years after the '45 rising collapsed in blood and defeat, Ewen Cameron has tried to build a peaceful life on his ancestral lands. Yet when whispers of a new Jacobite conspiracy begin circulating, the Cause that cost so many their lives calls to him again. Ewen navigates treacherous waters, his loyalty to the Stuart restoration endangered, his cousin Dr. Archibald Cameron facing even graver peril, and finds himself entangled with the family of his friend Keith Windham. Broster renders the post-rebellion Highland world with meticulous historical texture and deep emotional resonance, capturing both the romantic tragedy of the Jacobite cause and the personal stakes of those who remained faithful to it. For readers who savor historical romance, political intrigue, and the poignant beauty of doomed loyalties.
