Synopsis

For writer Rose Fenemore, an isolated cottage on a remote Scottish island seemed like an ideal away-from-it-all retreat. Here is a place where she can work in peace, and where her brother Crispin could walk, fish, and photograph the birds and wildlife. But it is not easy to escape the world and its troubles. Crispin's arrival is delayed, and Rose, on her own in the lonely cottage, has to cope with two very different men who come in from the sea on the night of a summer storm. This gripping, nail-biting tale set on a beautiful isolated Hebridean island features love, intrigue, and adventure.
