Summary: 1613: King James - sixth of Scotland, first of England, son of Mary, Queen of Scots -- has unified both countries under one crown. But the death of his eldest son, Henry, has plunged the nation into mourning, as the rumours rise the prince was poisoned. Andrew Logan's heard the rumours, but he's paid them little heed. As one of the King's Messengers he has enough secrets to guard, including his own. In these perilous times, when the merest suggestion of witchcraft can see someone tortured and hanged, men like Andrew must hide well the fact they were born with the Sight. He'll need all his gifts, though, when the king sends Andrew north to find and arrest Sir David Murray, once Prince Henry's trusted courtier, and bring him a prisoner to London to stand trial before the dreaded Star Chamber. A story of treachery, betrayal and love.
