"The Sight of Heather" sets the prelude to a captivating lineage of first daughters, and Author Ally Stirling wholeheartedly invites you to come along on this remarkable literary journey, where we can all experience the magic and wonder together! What you can expect: 1800s Historical fiction Scottish folklore and mysticism Family loyalty Mother and daughter bonding Fae culture Strong female characters Spiritual healing Magical realism Generational saga For centuries, the fae folk and spae women of Scotland were feared - and persecuted. Life in the 1800s countryside, with its unforgiving climate, was both magnificent and harsh - testing cultures, beliefs and the loyalties of crofters. Jessie's ideal life spirals when she learns she is a first daughter in a biological line of 'spaes' endowed with unique gifts of spiritual sight and healing, aided by powerful ancestral stones. Backed by a vindictive priest intent on charging Jessie with murder and witchcraft, the new owner of the Cruachan Manor plots to rout the spaes and destroy their beloved forest. Despite grave warnings and family conflict, Jessie determinedly pursues her skills and powers, plunging her family and village into danger. Resolute in uplifting her fellow women, Jessie consults her stones. Faced with those who deem her evil, she must choose to relinquish her craft, or sacrifice herself to protect her culture and kin - and Lily, the next first daughter - the future of the spaes.
