Return to Loch Strathkin: An inspiring Scottish tale about moving on and healing

After retreating to the familiar comfort of Strathkin following a series of heavy losses, Marcie Mosse is staying at her uncle Callum’s cottage while trying to rebuild her life. The picturesque Highland village, with its mist-shrouded mountains and tranquil loch, holds both warm memories and painful reminders of absences that leave a void in the tight-knit community.

When Ruaridh Balfour’s estranged brother Ross unexpectedly returns after fifteen years away, his arrival stirs up long-buried village secrets and complicated emotions. Meanwhile, Marcie’s ancestral home across the loch stands as a stark reminder of past tragedies. As Marcie navigates her conflicting feelings, a young stranger arrives in the village hiding troubles of her own. When unexpected danger threatens their peaceful haven, the community must come together to protect everything they hold dear. Marcie discovers that sometimes you need to face the past before you can embrace the future, and that home might not be the place you left behind, but the people who've always been there.

Perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan, Liz Eeles and Heidi Swain, this compelling tale explores the bonds of friendship, the weight of secrets, and finding hope in unexpected places.
