Five years later the prophecy is fulfilled, and the heir, Harry Bertram, becomes the center of a plot to rob the boy of his inheritance. Guy Mannering by Walter Scott. Guy Mannering is an astrologer who only half-believes in his art. Instead he places his faith in patriarchal power, wealth and social position. But the Scotland of this novel is a nation in which the old hierarchies are breaking down and Guy must learn the limits of the nabob's authority in a society in which each social group - from gypsies and smugglers, to Edinburgh lawyers, landowners and Border store farmers - lives by its own laws. Guy Mannering is deliberately titled a 'novel of private life' which sets it out as a different proposition from Waverly, Scott's famous debut - and for the most part this is a negative for me. I like historical details and Jacobite rebellions, so a narrative which avoids those things in favour of a lost-heir story is unfortunately less compelling.
