"The Scottish Cavalier: An Historical Romance, Volume 1" by James Grant is a historical romance that occurs in the late 17th century Scotland, a time of great conflict. It explores loyalty, love, and upheaval, focusing on Walter Fenton, a young soldier caught in the political problems surrounding King James VII and the Covenanters. The story starts with a dark feeling, as Walter and other soldiers get ready for a dangerous mission in Edinburgh, tasked with capturing Captain Quentin Napier, who they think is hiding at Bruntisfield, a noble estate. As they go through the shadowy streets, the story shows the danger of disagreeing with the government during this time. Lady Grizel Napier, who leads Bruntisfield, gets a visit that leads to conflict, and her relative, Lilian Napier, gets caught up in the problems. The tension between what people must do, honor, and love starts to show, hinting at an emotional and politically charged story.
