The Black Loch / by May, Peter,1951-author.;
When the lifeless body of eighteen-year-old TV personality Caitlin is found abandoned on a remote beach at the head of An Loch Dubh, the Black Loch on the west coast of the Isle of Lewis, questions of murder and secrecy shroud the tight-knit community. A swimmer and canoeist, it is inconceivable that she could have drowned. Fin Macleod left the island ten years earlier to escape its memories. When he learns that his married son Fionnlagh had been having a clandestine affair with the dead girl and is suspected of her murder, he and Marsaili return to try and clear his name. But nothing is as it seems, and the truth of the murder lies in a past that Fin would rather forget, and a tragedy at the cages of a salmon farm on East Loch Roag, where the tense climax of the story finds its resolution. The Black Loch takes us on a journey through family ties, hidden relationships and unforgiving landscapes, where suspense, violent revenge and revelation converge in the shadow of the Black Loch.
