GLIMMERING

On the rugged, wind-lashed shores of the Isle of Skye, in a stone and turf refuge isolated from the world, Finlay MacLeod has chosen solitude as his only armor. For him, the sea is not merely a job, but a daily exercise in purification to bury the ghosts of a painful past and the mistakes of a distant youth.In that microcosm dominated by the fury of the elements and the dull rumble of the tide, Finlay's balance is disrupted by the arrival of Morag, the village schoolteacher. A proud and transparent woman, capable of seeing past the fisherman's rough exterior and forcing him to confront the shadows he tries so hard to avoid. Amidst stolen encounters and Atlantic storms that test the very survival of the community, the two will discover that salvation is not found in flight, but in the courage to face one's past.When a dramatic night puts a human life at risk on Cormorant Cliff, Finlay and Morag will have to choose whether to keep shielding themselves behind silence or to trust that small, stubborn, shimmering reflection on the water-the Glimmering-capable of cutting through the deepest darkness.
