In the pre-dawn hours of August 24, 1305, in London's Smithfield Prison, the outlaw William Wallace, who is to be executed at dawn, is visited by a Scottish priest who has come to hear his last confession. Keeping his true identity a secret, Father James Wallace has come to bring comfort to his cousin in he final moments. Now, decades later, the man who had fallen from grace has been reborn as a god-like figure. No longer an embarrassment to the Scottish nobility, "The Wallace" has been transformed by them into a legend to further their own ends. To keep his promise to bear witness to his cousin, Father James sets out to tell the true story of a man who led many lives, as outlaw and fugitive, hero and patriot, rebel and kingmaker.
