The Master of Ballantrae
In the shadow of the 1745 Jacobite Rising, the noble Durrisdeer family is torn as the elder son, the charismatic and roguish James, joins the rebellion, while his steadfast younger brother, Henry, remains loyal to the Crown. When James is presumed dead after Culloden, Henry inherits the family title and marries the woman they both loved, setting the stage for a fragile peace. But James, a figure of unsettling resilience and malevolence, soon returns from the grave, igniting a generations-long feud that consumes both brothers and their legacy. Narrated by the loyal, yet increasingly conflicted, family steward Ephraim Mackellar, this historical saga delves into the corrosive power of sibling rivalry, the weight of inheritance, and the relentless pursuit of vengeance across continents.
