The border between England and Scotland is a place of endless wars and clashes. And so, thanks to the marriage of the Scottish king and the English princess, hope appeared that peace would finally come to the battered region. That’s what the border knight David Maysgrave also hopes for. But it turns out that the seeming well-being is deceptive: the Scots receive weapons and money from the French, prepare for war, and gather an army unseen before.
Then the ruler of the English border, Henry Percy, gives Maysgrave a secret assignment — to sow discord between two major Scottish clans, hoping that Scotland’s internal problems will delay the military campaign. But to create hostility between the chiefs, David needs to kidnap the beautiful woman Moira, whose origin no one knows, and who locals believe is a fairy.
Secrets and dizzying adventures, intrigue and battles, passionate desire and cruel war — all of this is in Simone Vilar’s novel “MAYSgrave.”
