Blood of Kings
This is a story of murder, lust for power and revenge. It reveals startling evidence that links the 'Gowrie Conspiracy' of 1600 to an assassination that changed the course of European history, and considers the possibility that the bloodline of Mary Queen of Scots might have no legitimate right to the throne.

James VI And The Gowrie Mystery
An old Scottish lady, many generations ago, used to say, 'It is a great comfort to think that, at the Day of Judgment, we shall know the whole truth about the Gowrie Conspiracy at last.' Since the author, as a child, read 'The Tales of a Grandfather,' and shared King Jamie's disappointment when there was no pot of gold, but an armed man, in the turret, he had supposed that we do know all about the Gowrie Conspiracy, that it was a plot to capture the King, carry him to Fastcastle, and 'see how the country would take it,' as in the case of the Gunpowder Plot. But just as Father Gerard has tried to show that the Gunpowder affair may have been Cecil's plot, so modern historians doubt whether the Gowrie mystery was not a conspiracy by King James himself.
