Amazing book. Absolute new favourite of the year. Innes weaves such a complex story about a woman whose life and death are so intertwined with her politics and beliefs. A slow paced read full of character analysis from the people who loved, hated, and were affected by Clio Campbell. The Scottishness is amazing. We get a look at such important moments in Scottish history and see the scars left over. Cannot rave about this book highly enough!!
