Description
The road from the Scottish mainland to Kintillo lies across a ridge of
craggy and forbidding hills, a natural barrier isolating the peninsular
from the rest of the world and making Kintillo a place of both refuge
and solitude.
But trouble begins when Father Macabe dies, and Father James, a new, young man arrives.
Handsome and full of ideals, Father James is totally unprepared for the spell-binding beauty of the lonely country, and for the irrelevance of his philanthropic fervour to the lives of its inhabitants.
For company, there is only a retired doctor, a charming and alcoholic wreck, and the inhabitants of the Hall - the Laird and his two pretty daughters.
Meriel Finlay is one of these daughters - a captivating 19 year old yearning for love and adventure.
As mutual desire slowly ripens, can Father James continue to keep focus on his profession when it denies him his basic instincts?
Passions hidden below the surface, maturing in loneliness, erupt in a violent upsurge of love, hatred and jealousy which sweep through Kintillo like a storm…
“The affair began as a challenge…became an obsession…and ended in violent tragedy. Brilliant…this is a gem" - Woman’s Journal
“Superb” - Sunday Telegraph
“The tension never flags” - The Times
“Sally Rena tells her story so well I wonder what she will do next. The promise is enormous.” - Birmingham Post
