New from acclaimed Scottish author, Catherine Czerkawska: a disturbing piece of short fiction.
On a solo trek in the Scottish Highlands, the narrator has an unexpected meeting with an intriguing stranger. Drawing on her expert knowledge of mythology and the folk customs and beliefs of Scotland, the author has constructed a fascinating and at times frightening story of a perilous encounter. Is this an exploration of fear and the power of imagination in remote places - or is it a disturbing love story with a touch of the supernatural? The reader must make up her own mind.

Praise for Catherine Czerkawska's writing:

'A lyricism which conjures up vivid pictures of landscape and a sparse, readable style which drives the plot along.' The Scotsman

'Moving, poetic and quietly provocative.' The Independent.

'Czerkawska is rightly known as one of the most interesting and individual historical novelists we have, able to find a relatable way to tell a story which may have been overlooked otherwise.' Alistair Braidwood, Scots Whay Hae!
