The sun is shining. Paradise, she thinks. But at that moment, she hears a voice: \"All this way for a funeral.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo begins an adventure far removed from Jemima's visions of heather-covered hills, crystal-clear streams, romantic men in kilts, fairy-tale castles....Instead, she is plunged into the strange world of the aristocratic Beauregard family with its tensions, its jealousies, and its violence, in many ways a primitive world dominated by the land and its possessing. The setting is the Wild Island itself, sometimes enchanting, but too often frighteningly remote; the streams, not silvery, but brown and sinister; her holiday home, with its disturbing, sometimes terrifying, influences; the people--the dashing war hero Colonel Henry and his sons, the forthright old priest Father Flanagan, Bridie the family servant, Clementina the wayward heiress...none of them quite what they seem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd then there is the specter of the Scottish \"freedom fighters,\" in the shape of the self-styled army of the Red Rose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt all adds up to a brilliantly told story of mystery and intrigue on the Wild Island.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 196\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 14, 2007\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47256656904441,"sku":"9780393331899","price":23.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/ZAKsh6UcxG9780393331899.webp?v=1768734914","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-wild-island-a-mystery-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
