In 1688, Rawson returns to England as a soldier in the Dutch Army. Among those who flock to support William of Orange in his bid to replace James II on the throne is John Churchill. Rawson and the future Duke of Marlborough are now on the same side...Filled with political intrigue, suspense, romance, private feuds and public scandals, "Soldier of Fortune" traces the shifting geographical patterns of Europe at a key time in history.
