Title: Far seeks the heart
Description: Few women have gone to war more defiantly and courageously than Scotswoman Ellen Sinclair. She steps briefly into history in 1612 during the Kalmer war, when Denmark and Norway were united against Sweden, and Scottish mercenaries were raised to fight for the Swedish king.

Ellen, in the last month of her pregnancy, passionately in love with her husband, Captain George Sinclair, defied his orders und smuggled herself aboard his ship at Thurso—a lone woman with three hundred rough Scots. Circumstances had made the ship's destination hostile Norway, and Ellen's baby was born during the voyage. After landing at Isjford, they set off through enemy country to link up with invading Swedish forces, Ellen's small baby in her arms.

And at Kringen in the Norwegian valley of Gudbrand, Ellen met the full measure of all that destiny had decreed for her.
