Glallowglass by Barbara Vine?

If you have rea this could you give me a summary or the monomyth. I lost the book so I couldn't read it. I am wondering to buy it or not.

Glallowglass by Barbara Vine?
Here are a few reviews and summaries of the book. I have read all of R. Rendell/Barbara Vine's books. She is one of the best English language authors writing today in any genre. If you are hesitant about purchasing the novel, why not look for it at your local library?

" . . . Gallowglass is a loyal Scottish servant who is willing to die and protect his lord. . .

Joe who has been recently released from the mental hospital . . . wanders in the subway and on an impulse attempts to jump into the tracks of the incoming train. He was saved by Sandor who turns Joe into his gallowglass and accomplice to kidnap the rich and beautiful Nina Abbot. It seems that Sandor has already kidnapped Nina before when she was the wife of an Italian prince and has fallen in love with her during her captivity. Nina meanwhile has fallen in love with Paul, her bodyguard and gallowglass. The tension builds as the kidnappers come closer to their goals and with the addition of Joe's sister who is infatuated with Sandor. The climax is unpredictable as well as the brilliant anti-climax which leaves the readers in a dazed and feverish state of agitation. . . ."
