About This Book
A foundling girl of kelpie lore is taken into a Highland household and must learn domestic life while hiding her strange origins. Her arrival stirs curiosity, suspicion, and village superstition, leading to tests of trust, encounters with uncanny creatures, and escalating clan tensions. Episodes range from gentle humor and quiet learning to perilous tasks, rescues, and an escalating witch hunt that culminates in violent clashes. Through trials of loyalty and moral choice, relationships are reshaped and the community confronts vengeance and reconciliation before the story reaches its conclusion.
