A delightful read. I really enjoyed reading this book. It is in truth a book which can be enjoyed by people of all ages. A refreshing read, in time, when more and more books had started to sound like just the same.The story of Isobel goes side by side with Lou's story. It tells us about a woman wrongly accused of being a witch and burned. And how a quest to clear her name leads Lou to find herself & her family.Isobel was betrayed by the man she fell in love with and after that she chooses to live in isolation. As more time passed people forget about her past and some even forget her true identity. To them she is just a weird woman who helps them whenever they need her. Children are scared of her and there are rumours of her being a witch. One thing leads to another and one day she is burned alive for the murders she did not commit.Lou is a modern day girl who has graduated from college early but still can't decide what she wants to do with her life. When her adoptive parents give her permission to take vacation with her best friend her life changes for the better. In Scotland adventure of her life awaits.This book has everything. Its a perfect mixture of romance, mystery and history. All the characters are well written and there are enough twists and turns to keep a reader entertained.
