Beschrijving

In the rugged Scottish Lowlands, a French nobleman finds himself caught between his aristocratic past and a forbidden romance. Living amongst a family of strict Covenanters, he falls for a woman whose world is defined by rigid piety and local tradition. Their connection sparks a dangerous conflict with the community’s unforgiving moral codes. Buchan masterfully captures the somber atmosphere of 17th-century Scotland through a lens of exile and longing. This novella is a hauntingly beautiful exploration of sacrifice and the heavy price of devotion.
