Synopsis


Shortlisted for The 2017 Highland Book Prize
Having returned to his childhood home in the West Highlands, Calum leads a quiet life. More than two decades after his brother Finn fell to his death, he still relives the event and struggles to find peace of mind. It isn't so easy, however: his mother, Mary, has Alzheimer's Disease and his estranged daughter Catriona has arrived out of the blue. Unexpectedly, Calum has his mother and daughter living with him and the house becomes a crucible of old resentments, disappointments, unspoken revelations and fragile but enduring love. Together and separately, Calum, Mary and Catriona retrace the events that have brought them to this point and made them who they are.

Review

The author shows real empathy and understanding of her characters, tackling some weighty current issues (such as mental health and Alzheimer's disease) with eloquence, insight and dignity. --The Highland Book Prize

A family story that holds a mirror to a wider culture: wrought in quashed grief and blame, beneath it all there's a daily fumbling towards understanding. It's raw, wry, humane stuff. --Karine Polwart

The Angel in the Stone is just as beautifully written... The Angel in the Stone is a powerful story showing how the past comes with us into our the present day. --The Portobello Book Blog

'... wonderful characters and setting. Highly recommend.' --Sandra, Beauty Balm Blog

Incredible, beautifully written, laughed, cried & couldn't put it down! --Hannah Bardell MP

Hooking its readers early and not letting go until the very end, The Angel In The Stone, even at its darkest, is shot through with glimmers of optimism and humanity... --Alastair Mabbott, The Herald
