Despite Them: A Gregor Macgregor Adventure

Gregor Macgregor, an 18th century Scottish Highlander, has seen his fair share of death. The Campbells saw to that with his father's murder at the strange standing stones when he was ten. As one of the hunted clan-as all Macgregors are-Gregor learned to melt into the mountains and stay one step ahead of the hunters: Clan Campbell. With no family left, the man-sized child roamed the heather for two years before being taken in by Alexander Robertson, the Chief of Clan Donnachaidh. Now a cocky man of twenty-one, and contender for chief's guard, Gregor must prove himself at the Games that his strength and cunning are worthy to serve. After taking his safety at Blair Castle for granted for so long, Gregor once again becomes entangled with the Campbells when the murders of several Macgregors in his old hometown sound all too familiar. Could his father's killer still be on the loose after all these years? Gregor scoffs when he learns he's the killer's next intended victim, but his bold confidence is shattered when the killer abducts the woman he desires, leaving her worse than dead. Alexander assigns Gregor the task of hunting down this butcher to be brought back to the castle alive. But this may prove an impossible task, as his posse is comprised of Macgregors who've all lost at the hands of this Campbell.
