Description
Cullrothes, in the Scottish Highlands, is a place of contrasts, where the beauty of nature is matched by the darkness of human secrets. Here, Innes hides a terrible truth from his girlfriend Alice, while Donald's aggressive distillery business has brought narcotics to the village. As the story unfolds, multiple narratives weave together the lives of its inhabitants, each haunted by fears and uncertainty. The village is trapped in a cycle of suspicion, malice, and lies, where the police are compromised and journalists are seen as scum. Schoolgirl Jessie seeks escape from her circumstances, while Grandpa counts down the days left to him. The Mash House is a place where mountains loom large and the loch freezes in winter, its isolation exacerbated by long storms and poor phone signals. As the lives of these individuals become increasingly entangled, the truth begins to surface, but at what cost? This gripping novel uses multiple narratives to explore the complexities of human nature, revealing a world where nothing is as it seems.
