It is Victoria's reign, the height of the British Empire. Two women, born to different worlds, tied unknowingly by blood - and locked in bitter rivalry for the Highland estate, and the man both lay claim to . . .
Sophie - wilful, entrancing toast of exotic Hong Kong, blissfully immune to the deceitful deals, clash of cultures, and growing menace of the opium trade that threaten her beloved city.
Rachel - subtle and stubborn, plucked from the slums of Victorian London to a new life and status in the remote Scottish castle of Juran - then faced with the loss of what has become her obsession.
Rainer Blake - clever, manipulative banker with interests in Scotland and Hong Kong - and in both women. And Blake alone knows the tangled history of Rachel, Sophie and Juran . . .
From vivid Hong Kong to Scotland's stormy west coast, the two women play out their passions against a background of intrigue and violence. But only one can win what both so desire . . .
A sweeping, powerful family saga inspired by the fiery relationship between Elizabeth I of England and Mary, Queen of Scots, 'In Still And Stormy Waters' is an engrossing story of obsession, double dealing, and love.
