This book is about Lou, a currently unemployed person who has no idea what to do with her life, and a surprise vacation to Scotland. Intermingled with modern day Scotland, we have the Scotland of the 1500's and specifically Isobel Key. I loved how the story was intertwined and things from the past had relevance in the 'here and now'. I also enjoyed how Lou grew and changed as the story goes along and becomes more self-confident. Intriguing story and with a splash of mystery and romance. Really enjoyed it.

I don't really read fantasy fiction but I do enjoy Donna Grant's work and I'm grateful to be granted the chance to read the latest in the dragon kings saga set in the highlands of Scotland. An excellent start.

Tey Holden creates characters that you want to cheer for, hug, and tell to open their eyes. The story flows very well and bother characters have to make tough choices. I am looking forward to continuing the story with them in Scotland.

[The Death of Bees] by [Lisa O'Donnell] is a coming of age novel set in Glasgow, Scotland. The characters are realistic and make you feel for them although the dialogue is hard to understand at points because it is the true way they speak in the poorer parts of Scotland. This does not deter but rather enhances the characters who had to survive on their own and take care of each other even before their 'parents' die and get buried. They learn to care not just for each other but also outsiders who really do have their best intentions in mind.
