'A truly original and enthralling novel...mischievous, sad, funny
and truthful' Stephen Kelman, BOOKER-SHORTLISTED author of PIGEON
ENGLISH 'Clever, poignant, beautiful ... peopled by a cast of
brilliantly off-the-wall characters, and full of keen-eyed
observations about life on a remote Scottish island - and, by
extension, everywhere. A must-read' Laura Barnett, author of THE
VERSIONS OF US WINNER OF THE EDINBURGH BOOK FESTIVAL FIRST BOOK
AWARD, from the author also known as The Mull Historical Society.
When Fingal McMillan rows out into the Atlantic never to return,
his grandson Alexander is left with questions. What really happened
to Alexander's mother? Was his grandfather trying to reach The
Looming, a rock of local myth? And why have mysterious words
appeared on the cliff by the bay? Alexander is not the only local
boy whose origins are clouded by mystery - a mystery which
stretches back to Victorian times, when a pioneering travel writer
alighted on Scottish shores. But will the island give up its
secrets? Or will Ivor Punch - the man who links the past to the
present - take them to the grave?
