Fresh from the pleasant rabble of Paris, Count Victor de Montaiglon rides into the silent autumn country of Argyll and takes shelter with the Baron of Doom in his half-ruined castle above Loch Fyne. Amid the aftermath of the Jacobite rising he finds a household of servants, a scheming chamberlain, a woman at a window and someone in search of a spy.
