In the Shadow of My Truth is the second book in the series on Clan Douglas and Scotland’s Wars for National Independence. The year was 1306; Scotland needed a revolution, a new king to lead her subjects to freedom. Robert Brus answered the call. James Douglas joined him. This is the true story of the Good Sir James, one of Scotland’s most beloved knights. It is also the tale of a widow’s struggle to revenge her husband’s martyred end. Eleanora Lovaine Douglas inspired her three sons to greatness, instilling her husband’s teachings and core values in her children; fulfilling her death bed promise to her loving husband, continuing the fight for Scotland to rid their homeland of Edward’s tyranny forever.
