The hunt for the crowning stone of the Dalriadic kings, the Stone
of Scone, has begun. 'You could easily make a case that Andrew
Greig has the greatest range of any living Scottish writer' -
Scotsman A motorcyclist with a stolen ring walks into Rothiemurchus
Forest and finds a quiet place to die. A woman with an eventful
past has signed the Official Secrets Act and gone to Dumfries to
forget a man and keep out of trouble. In comfortable Crieff, a
retired historian publishes an obscure article on the survival of
the Stone of Destiny then has his throat cut. A man with a long
blade in a tan holster under his suit, a fondness for
bird-watching, and memories of his short-lived Punk band Anger
Management, has taken a commission to retrieve an object so
valuable and mythic it might not exist. A rugby-playing half-Maori
named Leo Nagotoa stands in the sleet by Romanno Bridge in the
Scottish Borders, trying to thumb a lift when his Destiny slithers
up alongside him. Some of the cast of The Return of John Macnab are
back, but the times and the mood have changed. Romanno Bridge is a
wintry thriller, an entertainment, a quest and an exploration of
contemporary themes of fakes, frauds, copies, and a struggle to
find the Real Thing, wherever and whatever it might be.
