The book follows the life of a young man named Richard Fairfax, who is a loyalist to the king. However, his loyalty is tested when he falls in love with a woman named Barbara Villiers, who is the mistress of the king.As Richard and Barbara's relationship develops, they become increasingly involved in the political intrigue and power struggles of the royal court. Richard's loyalty to the king is further tested when he discovers a plot to overthrow him, and he must decide where his true allegiances lie.The novel is filled with vivid descriptions of the royal court, including the opulent lifestyles of the aristocracy and the political machinations that took place behind closed doors. It also explores themes of loyalty, love, and betrayal.Overall, ""An Enemy To The King"" is a gripping tale of love and political intrigue set against the backdrop of one of England's most fascinating historical periods.For hours I considered the possible relations of the governor's arrival to mademoiselle's safety and my own, to that of my men and our cause, and to my intention of delivering M. de Varion from prison. But I could arrive at no conclusion, for I knew neither the governor's intentions, nor what information he had concerning me. There were so many probabilities and so many possible combinations of them, that at last I threw the whole matter from my mind, determining to await events. On the way back to the chateau I reproached myself for having wasted so much time in making useless guesses, for when I found myself at the gate it was night, and the moon had risen.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
