The Last Pearl Fisher of Scotland by Julia Stuart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Sheer delight. This beautifully written story about Brodie McBride, his wife Elspeth and young daughter Maggie and a cast of other wonderful characters in this poignant story of love, loss, anguish, humour and some truly laugh-out-loud moments. The conversations between Maggie and her mum and dad often had me creased up with laughter. Brodie thinks his marriage is floundering; he's on a quest to track down the pearl that will complete a necklace for Elspeth; this he believes will save his marriage. But his quest remains one of disappointment until Maggie takes events into her own hands and.... oh dear, things go completely pear-shaped as the McBrides find themselves at the centre of an international commotion that will change everyone's lives forever. I yearned for a positive outcome as the pages rushed by. Is there one? Read this delightful, funny, touching story and find out!
I loved this book.
