About this book
April finds Hamish ploughing the fields of Arran, glad to be free of college and the town. He recalls the pleasure of working horses, the farming methods his grandfather defended against sceptical neighbours, and Dan's teasing talk as they finish their morning's work. When Belle appears with a child wrapped in a tartan shawl, the meeting draws family and affection into this account of island life.
John Sillars gives the romance a setting built from peat roads, moorland, sea mist and small farms. Around Belle's cottage, Hamish lays foundations, moves stones and builds a thatched byre with help from an older man. The care given to horses and buildings makes daily labour part of the story's emotional life.
