Set in 1465, "Quentin Durward" follows the journey of Quentin Durward as he travels to France to meet Isabelle, Countess of Marcroy, on behalf of his elderly Scottish uncle. The Duke of Burgundy, for political reasons, intends for Isabelle to marry Durward's uncle, but the situation quickly becomes dangerous. Quentin, a man of honor with perhaps too many oaths, finds himself and Isabelle manipulated as pawns by both the Duke and the cunning King Louis XI.
