The Stolen Hours

A lovely novel which I hugely enjoyed. I envy Karen Swan's skill to evoke a landscape and a very different past so effortlessly. The love story was all that one would wish and the characters are terrific.Elizabeth Buchan, author of Against Her Nature

This sweeping love story gripped us from the start, so we can’t wait for the next in the series. Best historical romanceIndependent on The Last Summer

A dramatic start to a gripping new series set on the Scottish island of St Kilda. The Last Summer is meticulously researched and beautifully told by one of our most prolific and talented writers. It contains all the ingredients of a wonderfully satisfying read: love, passion, drama, violence, menace and peril, and characters you fall in love with - and some you hate! Happily, this is the start of a series so your longing for more will be fulfilled.Santa Montefiore, author of Flappy Investigates on The Last Summer

This second book in the Wild Isles series is beautifully written and has a sweeping love story, making it a wonderful read.The People's Friend
