As the twentieth century approaches, this is a story of blood and battle, of love and passion

The new generation serving with Scotland’s proudest Regiment are destined to lead a life of action every bit as far-flung and exciting as their fathers’.

For Donald Bruce, this turbulent time begins when he is unable to order the death of one of his own men; for Ian Maclaren, when he falls in love with the beautiful but illegitimate Naomi.
