Plot

It is the year 1640 and England is torn by two loyalties—one to king Charles I and the other to Parliament. Puritan Squire Camden is arrested for refusing to pay the king’s unjust taxes, but he escapes from cavalier Sir Guy Farley and his men and is sheltered by the villagers of Spockley while Sir Guy and his men remain in possession of Camden Hall. Young Verity Goodstock, who works at the Hall, wears her scarlet shawl as a warning when the Cavaliers intend to swoop down upon the village to search for the Squire.
