About this listen

When best-selling author Carrie McClelland visits the stark and beautiful Slains Casle, she decides to use the castle as the setting for her new novel, and one of her own ancestors, Sophia, as her heroine. Then Carrie realises her writing is taking on a life of its own and the lines between fact and fiction become increasingly blurred. As Sophias' memories draw Carrie more deeply into the intrigue of 1708, she discovers a captivating love story lost in time.

A wonderful well written story which is brought to life by the narrator. A true love story with a twist...or two.

Winter wonder

Loved hearing the Doric spoken aloud. Although my own Jacobite ancestors came to Nova Scotia from South Uist, I felt a strong connection to the history, and the grey sea.

Loved the story but the narrator is what really sold it for me ❤️

I really enjoyed this story. As I was getting closer towards the end I started to doubt my early suspicions about things but it concluded as I imagined or at least for the most part. The narrator is what really brought it to life for me though. Her soft tones and way of talking was perfect and I started to distinguish when she was switching between Sophia and Carrie which made it easier to switch more fluidly. Absolutely loved it. ❤️
