IN THIS TRILOGY:

BOOK 1: THE KEENING
A family torn apart by the effects of war must now deal with the trickle-down effects of peace: the collapse of the kelp industry on which they depend. Sheila MacLean worries about her children getting ahead in the rapidly industrializing world of 1822, while her second husband Gillan is never quite sure about his ability to replace the father of her children. The MacLeans may need to leave their island to find peace and security. But where will they call home? When will the keening end, and their new lives begin?

BOOK 2: THE GRASPING ROOT
Four children and their mother have found a new home in 1824 Nova Scotia, but ghosts haunt their steps.
A strong sense of justice leads Neil to push for justice, while religious prejudice and economic disparity threaten Muirne's fragile hope for love. And what will become of their rock, their anchor, the twine that holds the family together, Sheila MacLean? As the family attempts to put down roots and grasp new opportunities, old enemies and new challenges test their strength and loyalty. Will they become part of this new community they've chosen or be torn apart and scattered to the winds?

BOOK 3: STORM WRACK & SPINDRIFT
Ten years later, the two youngest emigrants will split the family across an ocean. Sheena pursues a future back in Scotland with her husband Gordon Lamont. Alisdair dreams of university and a chance to reform the political system in the colony that denied him justice for his father's death. But the British Empire of the 1830s has yet more obstacles to throw in their path. And when both their hopes of peace and stability are dealt a telling blow, how will they stay true to their fighting spirit?
