Sixth in the legendary Lymond Chronicles, Checkmate takes place in 1557, where Francis Crawford of Lymond is once again in France, leading an army against England. But even as the Scots adventurer succeeds brilliantly on the battlefield, his haunted past becomes a subject of intense interest to forces on both sides.

"The storyline skates along the edge of melodrama, but, as always, Dunnett's command of the period and her writing prevents it from going over. Excellent narration."
— ILRose (5 out of 5 stars)
