'The Searching Glance' is the long-awaited second collection from
one of Scotland's leading short story writers. The worlds inhabited
by the characters in these stories are diverse - a hill walker is
unknowingly watched over as he lies dying on a Highland hill; a
Glasgow party-goer searches years later for a woman who may have
mistaken him for a monster; a mysterious prize is sought in the
perpetual daylight of midsummer Orkney. Whether it is in a suburban
garden or on the stark skyline of a Borders hill, the landscape and
seasonal extremes provoke and unsettle.Linda Cracknell's stories
are multi-layered and brooding with longing and loss, allowing the
reader a 'searching glance' at characters' lives. With touches of
the surreal and hard strokes of reality, these stories will linger
in the mind.
