A young officer’s life, choices, and the unpredictable pull of fate. This historical novel follows Allan MacDonagh, a bright but restless cavalry officer, through early shoots of ambition and the pull of family expectations. Narrated by a seasoned observer, the story blends military life, social circles, and personal memory as it traces how chance, circumstance, and loyalty shape a man’s path.

- Meet a society-rich world of clubs, estates, and portraits that frame a soldier’s journey.
- Watch how early missteps, friendships, and the pull of duty steer career and character.
- Experience vivid scenes of riding, hunting, and the quiet rituals of a life lived in the shadow of history.
- Feel the mood and tempo of a bygone era as the narrator reflects on memory, loss, and what makes a life “above the average.”

Ideal for readers who enjoy character-driven historical fiction with a strong sense of place, atmosphere, and the costs of ambition.
