‘An absolute triumph! It had me gripped right to the end’ Sarah Haywood, author of Cactus
‘Wonderful. One never messes with faeries’ Melanie Reid, The Times

Loch Katrina waterworks, 1856. A Highland wilderness fast becoming an industrial wasteland. No place for a lady. Young doctor’s wife Isabel Aird, grieving for the loss of her many unborn children, finds unexpected freedoms among these hills echoing with gunpowder blasts day and night. With new life quickening within her again, Isabel can only wait. But a darker presence has also emerged from the gunpowder smoke. And he is waiting too.

‘A powerful, poignant and urgently important reflection on the non-human world. Immaculately researched and compulsively readable’ Charles Foster
