An experimental novel on a grand scale, beautifully carried
through. A Perth minister takes in a traumatised stranger who calls
himself 'the son and heir to being lost'. When the stranger
disappears, the events leading up to and following on from this are
revealed. Shifting perspectives from a contemporary mystery to a
history of Shetland and emigration, it extends the idea of Scottish
empire and diaspora imaginatively, while addressing notions of
being and belonging in 21st century Scotland.
