About “The monastery”
The action is centred on the Monastery of Kennaquhair, probably based on Melrose Abbey in south east Scotland on the River Tweed, around 1550 as the Scottish Reformation begins and the monastery is in peril. A love story is interwoven as the Glendinning boys fall in love with Mary Avenel: Edward becomes a monk, and Halbert marries Mary after service with the Earl of Murray.
