Mr Misfortunate

18th century, Great Britain 

Support for the Jacobite movement in Scotland, aimed to restore the Stuart line to the British throne, appears to be on the rise. 

Charles Edward Stuart – the “Prince” – is determined to restore his family to the throne, and by 1745, his plans to lead a Scottish rebellion are in full effect. 

But when the rebellion ends in a crushing defeat at the Battle of Culloden, the future of the Jacobite movement now seems more uncertain than ever. 

Now exiled in France, and incensed at the failed rebellion, Charles must decide his next step wisely. But with treachery and betrayal hiding around every corner, he must choose his allies carefully.

And whereas Charles remains determined to reclaim the throne, for his brother Henry, such claims hold little interest. With their differences threatening to damage their relationship forever, will the two brothers ever be able to reconcile?

And will the Jacobite movement succeed?

Or will Charles forever remain Mr. Misfortunate?

Mr Misfortunate is a thrilling historical novel filled with betrayal and intrigue that paints a powerful portrait of the failed Jacobite movement.
