Free: The Falls

October 8, 2021 By

After a lethal house fire, fifteen-year-old Emily Fall and her family relocate to the Yorkshire Moors in the hopes of starting a new life. The angel statue by the front gates has its head missing. The gardener in the back keeps a loaded shotgun. The front garden is a historic graveyard littered with the tombstones of past residents. It’s in this strange new place that Emily must deal with her lingering suspicions about the fire. The police declared it arson but were unable to find the culprit, though Emily suspects her own brother. Robert Fall, a reckless man with a dark past. She may be right. Robert knows as much from the way he avoids her, holing up in his room where the door is always bolted. He’s not the only one disturbed.

When they spend the first night in the new house, the Fall Family is woken up by the howl of a steam train. Emily thinks her new house is haunted. But it’s worse. Far worse. Free on Kindle.

Pitlochry and the Road to the Isles

October 8, 2021 By

A picturesque journey in the Highlands of Scotland from Ben Vrackie along the quiet shores of Loch Tummel and Loch Rannoch, the mountains of Schiehallion and Meall Garbh reflected in their still waters seems like an innocent meander through the peaceful scenes and wonders of nature.

But it was not always thus. Slaughter, bloodshed, Viking invasions, heartless evictions; the creachs of the Children of the Mist and the atrocities of the Wild Men of Rannoch tore this area apart as it struggled to survive the blood hounds of the chief of the Clan Campbell and the sword of Butcher Cumberland during the long, dark, Jacobite years.

But despite all that there was good. People who changed a way of life, an attitude to life, life itself – whether it was for the good or to the detriment. Retrospect reveals how dedication or passion can make a lasting legacy – can make history. $1.99 on Kindle.
