Years: 1488 - 1488
Conspirators directed by Douglas in 1488 capture James’ fifteen-year-old son.
After James attempts, unsuccessfully, to come to terms with the conspirators, he flees to Stirling, where the keeper of the castle refuses, treasonously, to grant his monarch admission.
James then faces the conspirators’ army at Suachie Burn, where, injured by a fall from his horse, James is stabbed to death by an unknown assailant.
His grieving son is released and crowned James IV, with Douglas named as regent.
