McIlwraith is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The book centers on the life of Hugh Maxwell, a Scottish Jacobite contending with the fallout from the failed rebellion of Prince Charles. Set against the backdrop of Canadian history, it explores themes of loyalty, identity, and the personal horrors of war, with a focus on Maxwell's romantic entanglements and attempts to navigate a turbulent political landscape. At the start of the narrative, Hugh Maxwell finds himself in London after the disaster of Culloden, struggling with his precarious position as a man linked to the Jacobite cause. In an effort to blend in with the locals, he adopts a disguise but soon becomes embroiled in a dramatic rescue of a lady in distress, which leads to an encounter with the Vicomte Gaston de Trincardel. As the story unfolds, Hugh is drawn into the complex social dynamics between English officials and Scottish exiles, while simultaneously navigating his budding feelings for Margaret Nairn, a spirited young woman with her own connections to the Jacobite cause. Lucy, Hugh's estranged wife, unexpectedly re-enters his life, complicating his emotions and commitments in a world fraught with danger and deception.
