Will power overcome evil, or destroy innocence?
Product Description
Davie Armstrong watches as his master, Angus McBain, publicly thrashes young Molly Geary for refusing to name the man who had made her pregnant. And yet, only an hour later, Davie sees the two of them alone in the malthouse, and learns that the child is McBain's. In a whirl of disbelieving rage he overhears them plotting to let him, Davie, take the blame and marry Molly.
Meanwhile, the master's wife is also pregnant. And a few months later the birth of the McBain's son Amos unleashes violence and tragedy at the farm. Born with no legs and emotionally crippled, Amos will learn to wield power of frightening intensity over everyone around him . . .

Having very little time to read during the day i find that i end up reading in bed, this book had me losing sleep there was never a piont i felt was right to put it down, you want to read the next bit, so many twists and turns, you never know what to expect.
I found this to be a really good read so much so that i wished the author had wrote a follow up to the story.
