<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in 1951 by William Collins"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>"I'm not really worrying, but it's very isolated. Boscath is like an island in some ways."</em></p><p><em>"I see what you mean," nodded Jock.</em></p><p><em>"And Rhoda isn't used to islands."</em></p><p>James Dering and his new wife Rhoda are returning from their honeymoon, and Jock and Mamie Johnstone are delighted to welcome them to their new home on a neighbouring farm. But Mamie's concern proves justified, and Rhoda, a talented painter who has chosen marriage over art, finds rural Scotland lonely after life in London. She soon finds new inspiration in the beauty around her, and in the process gives the bright but difficult young Duggie a new lease on life. But her art will also uncover secrets, and lead to dramatic, far-reaching consequences for those around her.</p><p>In this novel, in which characters from <em>Vittoria Cottage</em> and <em>Music in the Hills</em> recur, D.E. Stevenson wonderfully evokes the chill and bluster of winter in the Scottish Borders, contrasted with the warmth and charm of her irresistible characters. This new edition features an introduction by Alexander McCall Smith.</p><p>"Miss Stevenson has her own individual and charming way of seeing things." <em>Western Mail</em></p>
