Book excerpt: Isobell needs to escape. She has to. Her life depends on it. She has a plan and it's a well thought-out, well observed plan, to flee her privileged life in London and the cruel man who would marry her, and ruin her, and make a fresh start in Scotland. She dreams of faery castles, surrounded by ancient woodlands and misty lochs... and maybe even romance, in the dark and haunted eyes of a mysterious Laird. Despite the superstitious nature of the time and place, her dreams seem to be coming true, as she finds friendship and warmth, love and safety. And the chance for a new beginning... Until the past catches up with her. Set in the late sixteenth century, at the height of the Scottish witchcraft accusations, The Mermaid and The Bear is a story of triumph over evil, hope through adversity, faith in humankind and - above all - love.

Download or read book Stravaig written by David Wheatley and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stravaig: A fiction for voices is a rewrite of Samuel Beckett's great radio play All That Fall, set in rural Aberdeenshire. Where Beckett's text is about two old people and the spectre of death, David Wheatley's text inverts the source material, centering it on two parents with young children. Stravaig, in remarkable style, presents certain obscurities to the reader, such as words or sentences in Scots, and discussion of matters Gaelic. This is a gem of a playscript and a truly sublime book.

Book excerpt: Elizabeth craves adventure... excitement... love... For now though, she has to settle for a trip from her family's castle, to the port in Aberdeen, where her father has promised she'll be permitted to buy a horse... all of her own. Little does she suspect this simple journey will change her life, forever. And as she dreams of riding her new mount through the forests and glens of the Manteith estate, she can have no idea that she might never see them again. For what lies ahead is danger, unimagined... and the fearful realities of kidnap and slavery. But even when everything seems lost, most especially the chance of ever getting home again, Elizabeth finds friendship, comfort... and that much prized love, just where she least expected it. Set in the mid eighteenth century, Fireflies and Chocolate is a story of strength, courage and tolerance, in a time filled with far too many prejudices.
