Description
Reviews

of the novel, a young man, identified as a typical Borderer, navigates the rugged Scottish landscape under the cover of darkness, carrying an infant he intends to abandon but finds himself conflicted about. This man, Edie Johnston, wrestles with his dark motives and the weight of revenge against the Southrons, and after a series of inner struggles, he ultimately lays the child at the gate of Hawksglen Castle as a cruel form of retribution against those he feels have wronged him. The subsequent chapters sketch the life of the child, Eustace, adopted by a noble family, and set the stage for the unfolding drama of identity and fate against the backdrop of feudal conflicts and personal betrayal that characterize life on the Scottish border.
