It is Scotland, in the spring of 1297, and Margaret Kerr's husband, Roger, a merchant, has been missing since winter. Though he originally set out for trading purposes, Margaret now worries that he may have been caught up in the rebellion against the English, if he is even alive. Roger's cousin, Jack, travels to the city of Edinburgh seeking news of him, but is brought home dead, bearing wounds that could not be self-inflicted. Now Margaret herself follows the trail in search of her husband and the truth about Jack's death. The journey takes her to Edinburgh, which is occupied by the British, where Margaret's uncle, Murdoc Kerr, reluctantly agrees to let her stay at his inn. As Margaret and her uncle become part of perilous activities, they risk endangering his clandestine war-time work, spiraling into one mystery after another.
