The Last of Their Race

Isla Mackinnon shoulders the management of a struggling Highland estate while caring for her elderly, traditional-minded father and awaiting her brother's return from military service. When an outsider family offers to rent the house for a high sum, family divisions over pride, survival and change deepen. The narrative follows domestic negotiations, social encounters, and quiet personal trials as the household confronts modern pressures, shifting loyalties, and elder frailty. Interwoven episodes move between the estate and the wider world, exploring duty, the cost of adaptation, and the sacrifices demanded to preserve home and honour.
