A historical fiction compilation in the form of letters and diary entries, where in the 18th Century Scottish Highlands, all around Isobel is death, rape and burning fires, her Mother is lost as well as her home and livelihood. Isobel takes shelter in a shieling with her three children and her grieving father in the aftermath of Culloden. Her soldier husband Padruig Dubh, in escaping execution, leaves the family to fend for themselves while living in Coiraghoth cave as one of the Seven Glenmoriston Men. Their farm is burned down as well as their crops and the cows and Clydesdale horses are stolen. Years go by and eventually she begins to see crops replanted and a new home partially built, but once again her beloved husband is taken from her and forced into military service for the British in a foreign land. Finally, despair sets in. Losing her husband, along with all the secrets that she has kept all this time, becomes too much to bear. Will she let new love save her? This is Isobel's story.
