White Wings

A cry of pain breaks the island’s silence, then gives way to a calm so carefully held it seems to have a story of its own.

Off the wild Scottish coast, the company from the yacht White Dove hunts seals and birds among lonely bays and towering caves—but the quarry keeps out of sight, and the empty larder grows harder to ignore. Mary Avon, meanwhile, sketches the island’s stark beauty, urged by the cheerful Laird to record the truth rather than chase a prettier picture. She has more than artistic choices to weigh: earning her living matters, and the attentive Doctor Sutherland is never far away. As the tide ebbs and the hunters wait, what will the island reveal—and what are Mary’s companions keeping to themselves?
