Product Description

Review

First published in 1947, this Scottish historical novel is based on the author's own family background. It is the story of a family gathering in 1747 when a Jacobite rebel is hidden in an attic of their Gleneagles home, and loyalties are divided and tested when the house is searched. Written during World War II, there are echoes of German occupying forces creating personal conflicts in Europe, but there is a strong Scottish lilt to the language and convincing highland historical detail to keep us in the 18th century. (Kirkus UK)


Product Description
