Another slice of romantic history from the pen of this little known 19th century historical novelist. This is set in the reign of James the First and surrounds the activities of the notorious court of the same name. It is the usual entertaining round of love, betrayal, ambushing, poisoning, imprisonment and even torture. Who could resist insulting language such as "Beshrew him for an envious railer...A pest upon him for a cankerbitten churl!". 4/5 ( )
