Adam Fleming has fallen for Helen of Annandale, and, in turn, fallen foul of his rival, Rob Bell: a man as violent as he is ambitious. Now he faces a battle for her hand, and for his life. His friend Langton is entrusted as guard to the lovers' secret trysts. But Langton has another master to serve - one who would use lovers as pawns in his own play for power.
