Midwinter

Certain Travellers in Old England

About this book

While Bonnie Prince Charlie prepares to reclaim his throne, Captain Alastair Maclean is travelling the dangerous byways of England in a desperate search for a Jacobite traitor. His first suspect is Sir John Norreys -- but is he really the traitor, or is Maclean influenced by his love for Sir John's beautiful bride? Chased by Hanoverian huntsmen, and led to the brink of death by a crazed gypsy, Maclean summons the aid of Midwinter -- mysterious leader of the brotherhood of "the Naked Men." - Back cover.
