Mary Stewart, James' eldest sister, was at first unwilling to marryThomas Boyd, future Earl of Arran - but she had no choice.Eventually, however, she learned to love him, and when he was sent tothe Danish court to negotiate with King Christian, she discovered aunique talent for diplomacy. In exchange for Princess Margaret ofDenmark marrying her brother, Princess Mary at length persuaded theDanes to hand over the islands of Orkney and Shetland to Scottishdominion.But when the fortunes of the all-powerful Boyd family took a turn forthe worse, Mary was to find herself in an extremely awkward anddangerous position...A riveting tale of romance, treachery and heartbreak, set in 15thcentury Scotland: the story of Mary Stewart, eldest sister of James IIIof Scotland and her part in making Orkney and Shetland part of Scotland.
