In their separate times they both discover the same mysterious well - a holy well - hidden in the countryside of the Scottish Highlands. And although they remain thousands of years apart, they are drawn together by the wisdom and healing provided by this ancient artifact of the land .. and the glimpses it gives of a higher reality. In this, his second novel, Colin Macpherson takes the reader on a personal journey through the lives of two people from vastly different eras who are both touched by the same mystical experience.
