About the Book

Sir Henry Lee est le gardien de la Loge, lieu de légendes et de passages secrets, résidence royale de Woodstock où Henri II avait caché sa maîtresse Rosemonde Clifford. Sir Henry est un anglican et un cavalier, un fervent partisan des Stuarts. Aussi s'oppose-t-il au mariage de sa fille Alice et de son neveu, le colonel Markham Everard, une tête ronde qui a combattu au côté de Cromwell. Sir Henry et les siens sont confrontés à l'envahissement de la Loge par trois lords commissaires dépêchés par le Parlement pour mettre le séquestre sur la forêt, le parc et la Loge de Woodstock. Sir Henry et Alice sont chassés de la Loge. La nuit venue, les trois intrus sont victimes des attaques de soi-disant fantômes, qui les terrorisent. Ils fuient les lieux. Everard use de son crédit auprès de Cromwell pour que ce dernier sauve la Loge de la destruction et pour que la garde en soit à nouveau confiée à sir Henry. Cromwell accepte, calculant que ce nid de royalistes finira tôt ou tard par offrir asile à Charles Stuart. Il compte sur Everard pour lui livrer le fugitif. Sir Henry et Alice réintègrent la Loge. Charles y arrive un soir, se faisant passer pour un page écossais du fils de sir Henry. Séducteur incorrigible, il s'empresse de courtiser Alice. La fière jeune fille refuse de lui céder, même après qu'il lui a révélé sa qualité. Jaloux, Everard se querelle avec lui, et un duel n'est évité que par l'intervention d'Alice. Everard apprend le nom de son rival. Mais, considérant comme une insulte à son honneur le fait que Cromwell lui ai demandé de livrer Charles, il garde le secret de sa découverte...
