Isobell needs to escape.
Set in the late sixteenth century, at the height of the Scottish witchcraft accusations, The Mermaid and The Bear is a story of triumph over evil, hope through adversity, faith in humankind and - above all - love..
Until the past catches up with her.
And the chance for a new beginning...
Despite the superstitious nature of the time and place, her dreams seem to be coming true, as she finds friendship and warmth, love and safety. and maybe even romance, in the dark and haunted eyes of a mysterious Laird.
She dreams of faery castles, surrounded by ancient woodlands and misty lochs...
She has a plan and it\'s a well thought-out, well observed plan, to flee her privileged life in London and the cruel man who would marry her, and ruin her, and make a fresh start in Scotland.
Her life depends on it.
She has to.
