It’s Summer, 1745, and Prince Charles Edward Stuart has landed in the Highlands, igniting a rising that will set Scotland ablaze.
Redcoat Captain Robert Catto has painful personal reasons for hating all Jacobites with a passion. Except for one.
Christian Rankeillor is a fiercely intelligent apothecary in Edinburgh. Her loyalty to the Jacobite cause is unshakeable.
Now, as the Rising gathers force and loyalties harden into life-or-death choices, Catto must confront enemies on and off the battlefield as well as the ghosts of his troubled past.
On the Wings of the Storm by Maggie Craig is published as an ebook on 12 February, 2026. It’s the fourth in her Storm over Scotland series.
We’ll have a feature from Maggie about the background to her book in Historia soon.
This is one of more than 120 historical books published this year, summarised in Historia’s Books to look out for feature.
