Joy Revel always loved seeing the Northern Lights dancing over the Wildflower Wood, the wee Shell House, and the Walled Garden she played in as a child. But when she moved back to Stonehaven, she quickly discovered that things had changed. The old house is structurally unsound, the Walled Garden has been locked up for decades, and a mysterious old man with a beard is wandering around warning her to stay away from Hangman’s Hill, especially when the Northern Lights hover over Dunnottar Castle... moreJoy Revel always loved seeing the Northern Lights dancing over the Wildflower Wood, the wee Shell House, and the Walled Garden she played in as a child. But when she moved back to Stonehaven, she quickly discovered that things had changed. The old house is structurally unsound, the Walled Garden has been locked up for decades, and a mysterious old man with a beard is wandering around warning her to stay away from Hangman’s Hill, especially when the Northern Lights hover over Dunnottar Castle.Musician Liam MacCraig wears an amulet around his neck made from dried stems and seeds of Traveller’s-joy. He believes the wildflower has the power to ward off evil spirits and protect travelers on their journeys. Or maybe it’s his mother's belief in the Holy Spirit that’s keeping him safe. As long as he lives near Hangman’s Hill, he’ll take any help he can get, especially now that the Northern Lights are at full tilt.Joy moved home to the Highlands to renovate the house she grew up in and open a B&B called Traveller’s Joy. Lofty dreams for a place where she can’t even sleep. It feels as though the whole Wildflower Wood is restless. less
