Macgregor’s Gathering

In the early eighteenth century, the MacGregors remain outlawed, landless and politically suspect. Rob Roy MacGregor and his nephew Gregor cling to Glengyle, one surviving corner of the clan’s former territory, while maintaining their loyalty to the exiled Stuart king. Their commitment draws them into armed resistance as conflict between Jacobites and the government moves towards open rebellion.

Gregor is a formidable young Highlander, but war is not his only concern. He is determined to win Mary Hamilton, whose first response to his rough manners and clan-bound life is rejection. His courtship unfolds alongside military preparations, divided loyalties and the constant danger that the MacGregors’ name will bring punishment upon everyone connected with them. The first Macgregor novel combines the gathering of a proscribed clan with a generational story of love and allegiance, showing how private hopes must survive within a political cause that demands concealment, sacrifice and readiness for battle.
