Sinossi

Can a painting be a link between the present and the past?
 
Forced to return to his ancestral home in the shadows of the Scottish Highlands, such ideas are far from Andrew Lambert’s mind. His business has failed, his love life is a mess. When his friend invites him for a welcome-home drink, he accepts, and a car crash is the result.
 
From this moment, Andrew’s life is transformed. He locks himself away inside the confines of his family castle, shrouded in secrets and untold stories from the past, and discovers far more than he ever thought possible. These stories seduce Lambert’s waking moments, control his dreams, and reveal to him the presence of a special, tantalizing woman: Lorna.
 
Delving ever deeper into his family history, Lambert discovers the truth of what happened to his ancestors... and learns of the secret that has haunted the castle for centuries.

    January 1921. Though the Great War is over, in Ireland a new civil war is raging. The once-grand Kilcolgan House, a crumbling bastion shrouded in sea mist, lies half empty and filled with ghosts, both real and imagined, while it shelters the surviving members of the Prendeville family. Then, when an IRA ambush goes terribly wrong, Maud Prendeville, Lord Kilcolgan’s eldest daughter, is killed, leaving the family reeling. Yet the IRA column behind the attack insists they left her alive, that someone else must be responsible for her terrible fate. Captain Tom Harkin, an IRA intelligence officer and Maud's former fiancé, is sent to investigate. He becomes an unwelcome guest in this strange, gloomy household. Working undercover, Harkin must delve into the house's secrets—and discover where, in this fractured, embattled town, allegiances truly lie. But Harkin too is haunted by the ghosts of the past and by his terrible experiences on the battlefields. Can he find the truth about Maud's death before the past—and his strange, unnerving surroundings—overwhelm him?
