WITNESS TO HIS FATHER’S MURDER BY THE DOONES WHEN HE WAS JUST A CHILD, JOHN RIDD IS HELL-BENT ON REVENGE.

But a chance meeting with a beautiful girl changes the course of his life. She is none other than Lorna Doone, heiress to the family of outlaws. When the ageing patriarch of the Doone family slides into death, the stage is set for his violent grandson, Carver, to rule the clan – and take his cousin, Lorna, as his bride. But Lorna’s love for John thwarts Carver’s intentions and whips him into a murderous rage….
