McCarthy is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set during the English Civil War, specifically in the year 1642, and revolves around the spirited Lady Brilliana Harby, who firmly supports the royalist cause against the Parliamentarians. As tensions rise, the novel explores themes of loyalty, honor, and gender roles amidst political machinations, capturing the multifaceted nature of characters engaged in the conflict. At the start of the narrative, we meet Hercules Halfman, a restless traveler returning to his home village of Harby after years away. He comes across discussions of the rising conflict, eventually learning about Lady Brilliana's bold declaration of loyalty to the King. Upon arriving at Harby, Halfman discovers the Lady has raised the royal standard, setting the stage for intrigue. The story quickly establishes the political stakes and introduces various characters, including the innkeeper, Master Vallance, and Brilliana's loyal servants. As Halfman prepares to meet Brilliana, the dynamics of loyalty and defiance against the looming threats of parliamentary forces begin to unfold, hinting at the deeper connections and conflicts that will shape the tale.
