| Summary |
"Despite her business success in Washington, DC, a woman troubled by questions about her roots and identity receives a surprising letter from a solicitor's firm; meanwhile, the death of a clan patriarch in Scotland's Shetland Islands paralyzes the economy of an entire community"-- Provided by publisher. |
|
When the tiny Shetland Islands community of Whale's Reef discovers MacGregor Tulloch left no will, it is thrown into turmoil. His grand-nephew David was the presumed heir, but David's grasping cousin Hardy submits his own claim to the inheritance, an estate that controls most of the island's land. And Hardy has the backing of a shadowy group of North Sea oil investors. Loni Ford has a rising career in a large investment firm in Washington, DC when she receives a letter from a Scottish solicitor. Orphaned as a young child, raised by her paternal grandparents, and completely detached from her roots, she hopes now to find her identity. |
