Description
No one remembered a winter as harsh as that of 1692. Blizzards followed blizzards, and the snow was more waist-deep than knee-deep. When frostbitten royal soldiers arrived in the picturesque Glencoe valley to collect taxes, the MacIains took them under their roofs, as the law of Scottish hospitality dictates. At that moment, no one suspected that an order would come that would turn peaceful coexistence into a bloody bath. And Bára could not have imagined that her search for who issued the order would lead her all the way to the court of French King Louis XIV. Historian Veronika Válková transports readers into real, authentic history in her books, where they experience thrilling moments alongside Bára while also learning a lot.
