About this listen

Gill McArdle is on the island of Iona searching for the burial places of kings. What begins as an archaeological survey risks descending into a treasure hunt and Gill suspects subterfuge from new enemies as well as old. And when a find on Iona sheds a little light on the nature of ‘The Torn Isle’, Gill doesn’t like what he sees.

Cassy Tullen meanwhile has gone home to lick her wounds. But before long, her indomitable spirit is rising to challenge the dark forces in her life and take back what is rightfully hers. She’s all alone, with the odds stacked against her. That’s until the day she meets a fierce, freckle-faced girl on the bus from Harris. If these two powerful women can comprehend each other, Cassy might just have evened the odds. When finally, she’s pushed into a corner, Cassy still values decency. But she’s done running. This time she’s coming out fighting.

Another gripping story in the series and so good to have the continuity of using the same narrator which always makes the characters flow so beautifully. More new detail about the main characters was perfect and just enough to get us hooked to want even more.
Looking forward to the next book dropping on audible, hope it’s very soon , thank you to Tormod for his attention to detail in this brilliant instalment of the series 👏

Brilliantly narrated once again

As with all of Tormod Cockburns previous books the reader ( listener) is taken on a journey in Scotland through recognisable landscapes, but meeting some characters you’d hope never to encounter in real life. The attention to authenticity is superb and the storyline develops in such a way to keep you gripped
