Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1903 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter xviii. A queen. In good heart the Master of Gray rode southward. The world was very good. Far behind him were the bleak northern hills, the mists and the biting winds of his own land. Here all around, in the heart of England, lay deep-bosomed meadows, and rich brown corn-land lined faintly with the delicate green of the springing corn. The hedgerows were golden, and the willows that drooped over the silent river. Everything was agreeable to the Master of Gray--the sunlight, the west wind, the chatter of birds. Moreover, he was flourishing as the green bay tree. In the winter Angus and Mar and Hamilton had come quietly to their own--not without profit to their dear friend, the Master of Gray. The King was safe in Maitland's hands, and happy with horses and dogs, numerous beyond his dreams. The King was pledged to Elizabeth, by word and oath--which were little enough--by Maitland's assurance that to help his mother to freedom was to lose his own throne--which was much. The Master of Gray perceived with enthusiasm that he had done brave work for this cause, chosen in good time. He foresaw with satisfaction praise from those whose praise he most valued. "And, faith, I deserve it," he said to himself, and laughed his musical laugh. He, Patrick Gray, had arisen, and the enemies of Elizabeth were scattered. Even Lady Kinaldie--for a moment he found himself wondering what had happened to her in this new diaspora. After all, she was the most beautiful woman that he had seen--save one. Then in an aesthetic spirit he began to consider the question, and he brought up before his eyes the slight curves of that lithe figure, the grey eyes dark as a mountain lake, the russet hair, and the cheeks daintily tinted. He saw May Cobham, and his eyes...

Born of one of Scotland's noblest families, Patrick Gray was fascinating, irresistible, ambitious and ruthless. Involved in a daring plot to free the imprisoned Mary Queen of Scots, and immersed in the intrigues of Elizabeth I's Tudor court, he strode imperiously across the turbulent stage of European history, crushing those who resisted his legendary charm. The great events of the sixteenth century provide a colourful backdrop to this stirring tale of love, adventure and betrayal.

Past Master tells the story of Patrick, Master of Gray, in the era of Queen Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots, and of his remarkable daughter Mary. With the end of Elizabeth I's long reign in sight, Patrick, Master of Gray, is determined that James VI should succeed to the English throne. Nothing can be allowed to stand in his way - not even his own daughter's happiness. And so Mary Gray and her lover, Ludovick, Duke of Lennox, are to be caught up in a savage game of power politics, shaped by personal ambition and religious bigotry.
