They are older than the English Crown Jewels by a century or more as the original English Jewels were confiscated, melted and sold by Oliver Cromwell. The canny Scots hid their Honours from Cromwell, though he avidly sought them as symbols of Scottish kingship and for their melted value.But one Scottish crown, its history lost in the mists of time, has been missing since it was taken by Edward the First of England from the Scottish King John Balliol whomhe defeated in battle and ignominiously deposed.What if the most celebrated consulting detective in the world, at the height of his powers in 1897, was put on the trail of the Golden Crown of Scotland? What if the most potent symbol of Scottish sovereignty was stolen, members of the British Royal Family abducted, threats made against the Queen and a campaign of terror planned by separatists aided by a foreign Power?What if Holmes and Watson tracked a conspiracy against the Union by some of the highest in the land?
