• “I used to be unable to place A Kingdom’s Cost down as I read it, and I miss the adventure even now…” – Online Book Club Editorial Review
Eighteen-year-old James Douglas can only watch, helpless, as the Scottish freedom fighter, William Wallace, is hanged, drawn, and quartered. Even under the heel of a brutal English conqueror, James’s blood-drenched fatherland might still have one hope for freedom, the rightful King of the Scots, Robert the Bruce. James swears fealty to the person he believes can lead the fight against English tyranny.
The Bruce is soon a fugitive, king in name only. Scotland is occupied, the Scottish resistance crushed. The girl James loves is captured and imprisoned. Yet James believes their cause isn’t lost. With driving determination, he blazes a path in blood and violence, in cunning and ruthlessness as he wages a guerrilla war to revive Scotland’s freedom. James knows he risks sharing Wallace’s fate, but what he in point of fact fears is that he has turn into as merciless as the conqueror he fights.
A Kingdom’s Cost is a gripping adventure that gives life to a defining era of Scotland’s history.
