March 1963. After an unexpected visit from the Kent constabulary, Roy and Shirley Trent are obliged to make a quick exit. They drive north, stopping only when they arrive in Braeside, a small village in the beautiful Scottish Borders. Roy is a conman and a skilful burglar. For Shirley, telling lies has become second nature…
Rosie Sinclair lives with her Uncle Aubrey (the vicar of Braeside) and his overbearing wife, Dorothea. Rosie’s parents died in 1940, during the Blitz. Rosie falls in love with Joe Nash, the Sinclair’s handsome but troubled gardener. Her guardians are furious: they’d planned to ‘marry her off’ to Norman Baxter-Pugh, a wealthy but peculiar man, twenty years her senior…
A masked stalker is on the loose, grabbing hold of young girls and snipping off their pony-tails. Can P.C. Andrew McDonald find the perpetrator?
Fascinating characters and more than a touch of dark humour...
