But far from home and vulnerable, surrounded by the double-dealing and debauchery of a dangerous and unpredictable court, she suffers a series of accidents.   Her mother, Scotlands Queen Dowager, orders Francis Crawford of Lymond to protect Mary, believing that at the very heart of Henri IIs glittering, decadent court is an assassin hired to kill the infant monarch.   Lymond must secretly hunt down this individual before he himself is exposed . . .
