A new novel from this master storyteller - In a gentle village on the
Scottish borders, Roland Fox, a young aspiring writer, moves in next
door to the equally young and attractive Jane Highsmith, a newly
qualified veterinary surgeon. But the growing attraction between them is
muted by the recent and mysterious death of her beloved
great-grandfather. There are all the ingredients present for a
traditional village mystery in true Gerald Hammond style and with his
usual Scottish flavour.
