Saltire Rising Rivka Spicer

In 2014 a shipping magnate calls in an investigation team to find out why containers are going missing from his ships. In 1900 a young mother flees to the colonies with little in her possession except two young children. In 1745 Charles Stuart lands at Glenfinnan in Scotland to embark on the doomed Jacobite rebellion that would cost him his last shot at the British throne. The thread that links these events is a twisted one of betrayal, broken hearts and politics. With a civil war that could tear a country, already in turmoil over the Scottish Independence Referendum, in two, there's everything to play for and everything to lose.
