Christine Morris has been sent to Edinburgh to attend a conference on
the latest in police methodology. There she is tracked down by the
Northern Constabulary, Stornoway, Outer Hebrides, who inform her that
her estranged mother has been involved in a vehicular homicide and has
gone missing.
Reluctantly, Christine agrees to fly up to Stornoway, where her mother
was last seen. Her arrival is followed by the suspicious death of one of
the islanders. What unfolds is a deepening involvement in the life of
the community, an unexpected reconnection with her mother, and a
nefarious plot against one of the young princes, who is planning a visit
to the island.
Set against the backdrop of a breathtaking landscape and a people who
are fiercely proud of their traditional way of life, Does Your Mother
Know? races along to a galloping finish in this complex tale of
suspense.
