"...Dorothy Dunnett's spectacular new historical sequence, a story as rich and colorful as the age in which it is set. It is 1459, the time of the early Renaissance, of trade and war and banking, of the Wars of the Roses and the Fall of Constantinople. It is a time when the city of Bruges harbours permanent trading colonies: from Scotland and Venice, London and Genoa, the Baltic and Christian Spain. A time when a small community can become an international centre for money and gossip and spies. When a young man with his head on his shoulders and his wits to the fore can slip through the fingers of all who use or abuse him, to win riches through business or fighting, no matter who (within limits) his parents might be...."

Among the few who struggled ashore on the inhospitable Aberdeenshire coast was the Voevoda Bolshoia of Russia, late scourge of the Tartars in the name of the sovereign lord the Tsar Ivan Vasilievich, but no stranger to Scotland.
