Scotland, 1297. Margaret Kerr's merchant husband Roger has vanished as rebellion against English rule spreads through the country. When Roger's cousin Jack Sinclair, who promised to search for him, is stabbed to death, Margaret travels to occupied Edinburgh to discover what both men were doing and whether Roger is still alive.

Her questions are unwelcome at her uncle's tavern and expose a city divided by covert loyalties, trade interests and fear of the English garrison. Further violence at the tavern forces Margaret to confront how little she knew about her husband's political connections and whether the relatives offering protection are concealing the same secrets that led to Jack's murder.
