A young law student, Darsie Latimer, finds his life upended when kidnapped by his uncle, Hugh Redgauntlet, in a village filled with Jacobite supporters, including Prince Charles Edward Stewart. As Darsie learns of Redgauntlet's plan to rally a small army for a third Jacobite uprising, he grapples with his uncle's motivations and the loyalty of the movement members. This tale, rich in Scottish dialect and humor, explores political themes and has been adapted for various media, making it relevant for contemporary readers.
