This fateful encounter marks the beginning of Francis's involvement with John Murray of Broughton, an infamous traitor and turncoat. This novel tells the story of Francis Birkenshaw, a young man from a good Border family, who grows up in Edinburgh determined to live a life of villainy and debauchery. But his wild escapades soon force him to flee abroad.
