A journey from Inverness to Skye in 1888 brings together travellers from diverse social backgrounds, each of them absorbed with their own personal crisis. When their ferry is pirated away by Scottish republicans to a remote Atlantic island for the gold consignment it is carrying, they find they have more in common than they may have thought, especially their families’ perspective on the Jacobite rebellion of 1745.
Could young Alastair Maitland’s ancestors have actually been double agents for Bonnie Prince Charlie and not the Hanoverian spies that history had branded them? How will Isabella Sinclair react to this rediscovered childhood friend who now seems so arrogant? What part has the despicable Kilvaxter in their fate?
There are parallels to be drawn concerning the motivation and morality between the two centuries, some agreeable and others decidedly uncomfortable.
The ordeal of their kidnap carries the characters through a series of intrigues and back to late Victorian Edinburgh where their futures will be decided.
