Description
The story of one extraordinary woman's determination to win back her birthright - the remote and beautiful West Highland castle of Kinveil - sold by her father to a Glasgow merchant when she was seven years old. Kinveil is the castle, set above a swirling sea. Vilia is the woman determined to reclaim it, as it once belonged to her family. From the day she left in 1803, Vilia fought to repossess her birthright - whatever it cost.
Sweeping story spans ninety years and myriad backdrops of the bustling, far-flung Victorian empire. At its heart is the call of the mist-decked Scottish Highlands and the indomitable will of an unforgettable woman born long before her time.
