The precise events of Christmas Day, 1997, would remain a mystery to Claire until the last hours of her life. All those involved that night have a story to tell, and Claire is dead set on uncovering the truth. After seeing her cousin’s face in the paper, Claire sets out on a journey of self-discovery back to her native Scotland.

As it happens, Kieran also has a vested interest in the events of that Christmas and maybe he’s not as innocent in all this as he at first appears – he is after all the Little Dark One…
