But the documents also hint at a far more dangerous conspiracy.Soon Lord John and Jamie are unwilling companions on the road to Ireland, a country whose castles hold dreadful secrets and where the bones of the dead are hidden, in an epic story of treachery - and scores that can only be settled in blood.
