Overview

Confucius once said, "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves." Confucius was wrong.


A widower at just fifty years old, one lost, lonely, and increasingly obsessed man seemingly finds salvation in the ancient Scottish sport of curling, until it unexpectedly takes him down a much different and darker path. A path through present-day Belfast, Maine; 1880s Scotland; and to the remote, volcanic island of Ailsa Craig, home to the finest curling stone granite in the world and former home to tens of thousands of marauding brown rats.


The Stones of Ailsa Craig is a work of historical fiction, set in present-day Belfast, Maine and 1880s Scotland, particularly the 60-million-year-old island of Ailsa Craig. Rich in history, The Stones of Ailsa Craig explores themes of loss, loneliness, obsession, and vengeance, while toggling between two distinct locales and time periods. It is a mystery which should appeal not only to those who curl, but also to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.
