Synopsis

Spanish swordplay, like Spanish dancing, is equal parts passion, skill, and strict discipline. The Immortal Otavio Consone is a master of both. An arrogant Spaniard who, 150 years ago taught MacLeod the sword art called "The Mysterious Circle,"

Consone vied with Duncan MacLeod for the hand of a beautiful woman, with tragic results. Now MacLeod must protect a Flamenco artist and her daughter from Consone's revenge.
