When Prince Charles Edward lands in 1745, the house of Durrisdeer hedges its bets: the dashing elder son, James, rides out for the Stuarts, while the dutiful Henry stays loyal to King George and marries the woman meant for his brother. The family steward Mackellar narrates the feud that follows them from Scotland to India and the American wilderness.
