490 1  The strathavon saga 
520    "The North-Eastern Highlands, 1780. The disaster of the 
       last Jacobite Rising has forced many changes on the 
       Highlands and its people, few of them good. Torn from an 
       ancient clan way of life into a harsh world of taxes, rent
       rises, land reforms and evictions, all that matters to the
       proud people of Strathavon is holding onto their land and 
       way of life. Only, they must risk their lives to do so. 
       Morven MacRae treads a perilous path - whiskey smuggler 
       and healer - apprentice to a suspected witch. Her friend 
       and guide Rowena is singled out for extra attention by the
       authorities, and in particular by the local exciseman who 
       will stop at nothing to have her for his wife. So when 
       Rowena's young kinsman Jamie Innes returns to the glen of 
       his birth, Morven prays he will protect Rowena and all may
       now be well. Only Jamie’s path is riskier still - torn 
       between honour and love, he chooses a dangerous course. 
       Jamie is driven by a fierce loyalty to his kinswoman … or
       so it seems. And by a desire to belong. Potent qualities, 
       and despite herself, Morven is soon drawn to him. But when
       it becomes apparent there’s a traitor in the glen, Jamie’s
       true motives are less clear. Can she trust him? For this 
       is a mystical land of lore and superstition. A place where
       loyalties are tested and secrets kept close ..." --
