It is not until he is thirteen that a Glasgow boy learns he has relatives on a small island in the Highlands. When he travels to the island for the first time, he discovers a way of life that is slower and gentler, set back in time, but packed full of humour and larger-than-life characters. Quickly bonding with his great uncle, he spends much of his adolescence on the island under Uncle James’ eccentric guidance.
In this charmingly narrated, delightful coming-of-age tale, our city boy grows to love his new-found island home. He begins to think and act like an islander. And it’s not long before he experiences the first heady scent of a Highlands romance.
