註釋

In August 1642 Charles Stewart King of England raises his standard at Nottingham, and a bitter war starts between King and Parliament over the Divine right of Kings to rule unimpeded by commoners. Jonas Stalker, as proud and haughty as any King, fights an unjust duel that leaves his opponent bleeding on the ground and sets in motion events that will eventually tear his whole world apart. A friendship broken, a woman scorned and abandoned, and an unwanted child litter Jonas' wake as he eagerly joins the Kings war. But three years of fighting forges a changed man, a better man, and after the carnage of the Battle of Naseby it is a different Stalker that finds a true love at last with a beautiful woman. But standing before their happiness is the brutal spectre of Jonaspast, and a savage revenge too cruel to endure. A turbulent story set against the backdrop of the English civil war that portrays two peoples journey to love, against all the odds!
