FRASER,GEORGE MACDONALD — The Candlemass Road

London, HarperCollins. 1996, Reprint. (ISBN: 0006477208) Trade Paperback. Book, Based on real events of 400 years ago, this is a vivid depiction of the terror and brutality of life on the Anglo-Scottish Border. To the young Lady Margaret Dacre, raised in the rich security of Queen Elizabeth's court, the Scottish Border is a land of blood and violence, where her inheritance lay at the mercy of the outlaws and feuding tribes of England's last frontier. Beyond the law's protection, alone but for her servants and an elderly priest, Lady Margaret must somehow find the means to fight the terror approaching from the northern night.177p, Historical notes, glossary.
