India. The British Empire is at the height of its power.
James Ogilvie, captain of the 114th Queen’s Own Royal Strathspreys, finds himself at the centre of a boundary dispute in the area of Mana.
The conflict intensifies when Angela, the wife of his cousin Hector, is kidnapped by Indian natives.
Ogilvie is left a note saying Angela will be killed if the British High Commission advances any further.
When Ogilvie’s brave attempt to rescue her results in his own imprisonment, the situation appears desperate for the Strathspreys…
‘The Restless Frontier’ is the next thrilling historical adventure in the James Ogilvie series. It was originally published under the pen name Duncan MacNeil.

“Hurtling plot, quick dialogue ...” Kirkus
“Written in the best tradition of Henty, Haggard, and Kipling.” Library Journal
Philip McCutchan (1920-1996) grew up in the naval atmosphere of Portsmouth Dockyard and developed a lifetime’s interest in the sea. Military history was an early interest resulting in several fiction books, from amongst his large output, about the British Army and its campaigns, especially in the last 150 years.
