Cover of Sir Walter Scott: Rob Roy (ePUB)

La novela comienza cuando Frank Osbaldistone, hijo de un comerciante Inglés, viaja por primera vez al norte de Inglaterra, y posteriormente a la Tierras Altas de Escocia, con el objeto de cobrar una deuda robada a su padre. Pero cuando el joven Francis descubre que su intrigante y astuto primo Rashleigh intenta hacerse tanto con los negocios de su padre como con el amor de Diana Vernon, la joven a la que pretende, no le queda otro remedio que acudir en busca del legendario Rob Roy y solicitar su ayuda.

Rob Roy es el líder del clan Mac Gregor, y, aunque valiente y sin miedo, es a su vez un proscrito con precio sobre su cabeza. Pese a ello, decide ayudar a Francis para enfrentarse a Rashleigh, aunque le cueste su propia captura.

Ambientada en las vísperas del alzamiento jacobita de 1715 en Escocia, Rob Roy es probablemente la novela más célebre de Sir Walter Scott, dónde se aúnan los hechos históricos del popular personaje, y la imaginación del autor que desarrolló el concepto de novela histórica, en un retrato incomparable de intriga, rivalidad y romance.
