'That, sir, had I been a man would have been a challenge’ ‘If Madame will tell to me how I offend, maybe I may make apology’ A Spanish nobleman on a mysterious mission, a young English lady searching for her brother, an indomitable dowager on her own private mission and a seriously wounded Scottish major. Their lives become inextricably linked on a journey of mystery and adventure through war-torn Spain and Portugal to London.
