A review by sarahp
The Lost Lights of St Kilda by Elisabeth Gifford

3.0

The standout thing in this book, for me, is the descriptions of the island, the people and the way of life on St. Kilda. I could actually visualise everything so vividly.

The story begins on St. Kilda but also details Fred's journey as he attempts to escape occupied France and return home. As the story progresses we learn about a love triangle, the abandonment of the island and are left wondering whether some wrongs can be righted.

A lovely piece of historical fiction, great detail and a lovely story of the hope of love.
