The Wolf of Dalriada by Elizabeth Gates PDF Summary

Book Description: ‘Gaelic calls spin a web through the mist in arcs of soft sound. Fear unsteadies the unseen flocks on the scrub heather hillside as men and dogs weave a trap around them in the darkling night. Once the flocks are penned, then the lanterns are turned towards the south. The watchers wait in silence.’ It is 1793... As Europe watches the French Revolution’s bloody progress, uneasy Scottish landowners struggle to secure their wealth and power. And, in Dalriada – the ancient Kingdom of Scotland – fractured truths, torn loyalties and bloody atrocities are rife. Can anyone ride the maelstrom of these dangerous times? Only, it seems, Malcolm Craig Lowrie – the legendary Wolf of Dalriada. In remote Argyll, people cry out to the young laird for protection against the evil of the Clearances. And there is also a beautiful Frenchwoman – staked as a child on the turn of a card – now living in thrall to her debauched captor, Sir William Robinson. But can the Wolf of Dalriada safeguard his people? Can the Wolf defeat enemies who, like the spirit of Argyll’s Corryvrecken Whirlpool, threaten to engulf them all? Written with a blend of mysticism and intrigue, the psychological realism of the characters is exhibited in their reaction to tremendous cultural change. The Wolf of Dalriada is a truly fascinating historical novel that will be enjoyed by fans of Philippa Gregory and Hilary Mantel. ‘Just stunning writing, historical turmoil and romance at its very best.’ – Rhona Whiteford, author and independent publisher, Wild Dog Books Ltd ‘A fascinating blend of romance and intrigue set in the highlands of Scotland. Thoroughly recommended.’ – Jacqueline Farrell, author of Sophronia and the Vampire, The Wild Rose Press ‘A novel with a wealth of historical detail as well as a great sense of time and place.’ – Cath Cole, author of Home from Home!, Corazon Books
