"A thirteen-year-old boy is the hero of this ... tale of England in the days of the troubles between Charles I and the Roundheads. Austin was a royalist; his twin step-brothers, Miles and Giles, were loyal to Cromwell. All three were looking for a treasure in emeralds, supposed to be for the king."--Book review digest.
