At the start of the novel, the narrator recounts an encounter in a dark Pass with Jock Farquharson, who is both a rebel against the British crown and a man of charisma and complexity. The two men engage in a tense dialogue that reveals their respective allegiances: Gordon serves the Hanoverian crown, while Farquharson embodies the Jacobite cause. As they navigate the charged atmosphere of impending conflict, we get glimpses of their internal struggles and motivations.
