What does it take to preserve the past?

What will cost to protect the future?

Hazel Rankin is the no nonsense Engagement Manager tasked with saving historic sites from the developers. When she invites academics from across Scotland to collaborate on a project that will bring in visitors Dr Lauren McDonald answers the call. When a body is discovered issues from their own pasts resurface with it. With the project unravelling the women struggle to find their connection and solve the mystery at the heart of the story.  

In 1715 widowed healer and midwife Jeannie Kellie’s place in the household of the Erskine clan chieftain is threatened by the arrival of a new mistress.  Mairead Erskine has been summoned to Alloa Tower to serve alongside her husband James who is charged with defending the family seat of power.  Loyalties are tested as their laird turns his coat and leads a rebellion to place a Stuart King back on the throne of Scotland. The shadow of war creeps ever closer and with everything to lose the women face their own desperate battle to survive.  

The time to choose is coming...
