SYNOPSIS

When ghostwriter Jenny Ryan is summoned to the Scottish Highlands by Sholto MacNab â€“ retired adventurer and Laird of Cauldstane Castle â€“ sheâ€™s prepared for travellersâ€™ tales, but not the MacNabsâ€™ violent and tragic history.

Lust, betrayal and murder have blighted family fortunes for generations, together with an ancient curse. As members of the family confide their sins and their secrets, Jenny learns why Cauldstaneâ€™s uncertain future divides father and sons.

But someone resents Jennyâ€™s presence. Someone thinks sheâ€™s getting too close to Alec MacNab â€“ swordsmith, widower and heir to Cauldstane. Someone will stop at nothing until Jenny has been driven away. Or driven mad.

â€œHell hath no fury like a woman scorned.â€ Especially a dead woman.

Reviews for CAULDSTANE...

"Absolutely modern and gloriously gothic... There's a remote and decrepit Scottish castle, (with a curse attached, of course), a wicked stepmother, a feisty but emotionally vulnerable heroine, more handsome men than you can shake a sword at, and a very dangerous ghost."
KATHLEEN JONES, author of Margaret Forster: A Life in Books

"The castle is a character in its own right, as evocative as Manderley, and a perfect setting for this gothic tale of love and the struggle between good and evil."
