This novel follows Kenn, who grows up beside a Highland river and moves between childhood memory and the experience of the First World War as he tries to recover inner calm. A vivid sense of landscape links the layers of time, bringing together the wounds of war and the possibility of renewal.

The river’s current calls lost time back again.

A biography that traces the life of John Knox at the intersection of faith, politics, and controversy. It avoids reducing him to a single image and instead shows both the force of a driving reformer and the complexity of a man shaped by his age.

The reformer’s life emerges as a chain of convictions and conflicts.
