A story told in two different centuries of how the wheel of time
turns and old wrongs are righted. Through the wild beauty of the
Sutherland countryside, sea, hills, rivers and lochs all play their
part in the adventures of two couples. 16th Century runs beside
modern days with links of blood tying them together.
Tubby has covered up three unrelated deaths. Or are they? Until DI
'Flick 'Fraser is told the secret of the pyramids she cannot
connect the crimes and trace The Man behind the murders. Further
deaths spread the investigation far from Flick's home patch.
JANE'S new house will be her refuge. Here she can lick her wounds.
But she needs tenants to finance it, business types who will be out
all day and, hopefully, away visiting friends at the weekends. But
she gets ISI, whose truculent attitude hides the despair of lost
dreams. Confined to a wheelchair after an industrial accident she
contemplates suicide. After her comes MAGARET, whose calm serenity
hides deep guilt that she lives while her daughter is dead. Her
life is over. Then comes JULIA. whose beauty and sophistication
give no clue to her background of povery and abuse. Humiliation has
led to a breakdown that has robbed her of confidence. Can the four
women help each other to overcome their problems? Will the house
shelter them until, with mended wings, the birds can fly again?
On the slippery slope to apathy, Joanne is rescued by the arrival
of Frances. Together they discover the stories hidden behind the
faces of their companions and Joanne's unlikely friendship with
teenage Darren re-opens the door to her first love.
It seemed an 'open and shut' case but DI Felicity Fraser felt
something was wrong. What was she missing?
