A gripping story of romance and mystery set in Victorian Scotland.
After the death of her father, Kirsty Howard leaves their home in China and travels to be with her mother's family in the Scottish Highlands. It is here that her brother William has also recently died - after a hunting accident. With her Kirsty carries a scroll sent by William from his deathbed, with a cryptic message "She has killed ..."
Arriving at Cluain, the old house and whisky distillery owned by her grandfather, Kirsty is drawn to the mysterious and moody Callum Sinclair, who roams the moors with his majestic falcon. She also meets the other people who had known William - the forbidding housekeeper, Mairi Sinclair; the friendly young maid, Morag; and Sir Gavin Campbell and his beautiful wife, Margaret. Over time, Kirsty learns the parts these strangers played in her brother's life, and how her own fate is bound up by the places and people of this remote land. But nothing can prepare her for the truth that must be revealed.
An atmospheric story of secrets, passion and family duty.
