Summary

Book two in the acclaimed Munro Scottish Saga trilogy.

Ayrshire 1597. The truce between the Cunninghame and Montgomerie clans is fragile. And for the Munro family, living in hiding under assumed names, these are dangerous times.

While Munro risks his life daily in the army of the French King, the spectre of discovery by William Cunninghame haunts his wife Kate. Her fears for their children and her absent husband realized as William’s desire for revenge tears their world apart.

Clan feuds, skullduggery, and medieval warfare abound in this turbulent tale of 16th century Scotland and France.

A sweeping tale of compassion and cruelty, treachery, and sacrifice, A House Divided is set against the backdrop of a religious war, feuding clans, and the Great Scottish Witch Hunt of 1597.

This eagerly awaited sequel to Turn of the Tide can also be listened to as a stand-alone novel and will appeal to fans of Winston Graham's Poldark and C J Sansom's Shardlake series.

Captivating and immersing 5 star performance

I love books that take a bit of time to build up to a crescendo and have you sitting on the edge of your chair by the time you get to the penultimate chapters. Skea's second in the Munro series definitely does that. Masterfully written, this is an evocative story with believable characters and a story that tugs at you heart.
Set in the late 16th century against a turbulent time in Scotland, this family saga focusses on the bloodfeud between the Cunninghams and the Montgomerys in which the the Munros are dragged into. The tale will grab you from the off, and rush you off into a place of suspended belief where you are wholly immersed in time and place.
A historical novel not to be missed by anyone who loves the genre, no matter which era.
