Kilmartin Raymond Walker First edition

Nestled in a quiet Glen on the West Coast of Scotland lies the sleepy village of Kilmartin. Shrouded and encircled by the ancient Caledonian forest that once covered all of Europe; this is one of its last bastions. There are stone circles, neolithic crypts, cysts, Hill Forts and Duns spread through Kilmartin Glen. Kilmartin sleeps with the slumber of the truly ancient. The people that live there are mainly happy, comfortable and warm. They have their worries, their lost loves that they still dream of and they have their quiet little lives, yet not, is all, as it sometimes seems in this highland backwater. Not everything is sleeping, not everything is quiet, things are stirring in the silent places, the shadows, the earthy dark, near the village and are beginning to notice what is going on around them. Old love stories are being Re-Enacted, Old Shadows are regaining their forms and looking to regain life. Beneath old crypts, old gods are lifting their old heads and opening their pale, scarred eyes to stare down upon the village. From the pen of Raymond Walker, The award winning author of "The River Sprite, and "Eternal Love" comes this triumvirate of novels all set in or near the village of Kilmartin. "Kilmartin" is The gathering together of the three great Kilmartin novels in a single volume. This special omnibus includes a (very) long introduction from the author as well as as a new novella to introduce them.
