Summary "The Cameronians: A Novel, Volume 2 (of 3)" by James Grant is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows Captain Cecil Falconer, as well as the tensions between nobility, love, and social expectations in Scotland. As the story evolves, it explores the themes of honor and reputation amid the complex relationships and struggles of the characters. The opening of the novel sets the stage for a dramatic conflict involving Hew Montgomerie, who seeks to undermine Captain Falconer and manipulate Sir Piers Montgomerie against him due to a perceived threat to his own romantic aspirations with Mary, Sir Piers' ward. The subplot creates an atmosphere of intrigue and rivalry, especially as Sir Piers confronts Falconer about his intentions towards Mary and his background, leading to misunderstandings and increased animosity. As the tension builds, readers are introduced to the social dynamics at play, the looming court-martial over Falconer's character, and a love that endures in the face of adversity, setting a compelling tone for the unfolding drama.
