The Roaring of the Labyrinth

It is April 1807, and a storm gathers over the Atlantic. It sweeps across the lower half of England, bringing snow and thaw and flood, and on to the North Sea, the Baltic and Russia, leaving devastation in its wake. In the drowned valley of Little Slaughter, a miniature library has been lost, and Whilbert Stroop, missing-persons finder, has been asked to locate it. His search will lead him, and the small family he's adopted as his own, on to the east, where the island archipelago of Saareema has been beset by animal mutilation, piracy, and murder. Stroop must unravel the increasingly tangled strands of past and present, where people expelled long ago are coming home. He will discover a secret world of tree-chapels, ancestral boulders, and the ancient art of ink - and with it, a more sinister scenario of intrigue, insurrection and death.

Strontian, a village on Ardnamurchan Peninsula, is inhabited by mining folk and crofters, eking out a living from the unforgiving land and turning a blind eye to the smugglers who plague the coast. A bag of bones is pulled out of the water; the assistant to Gustav Wengler, eccentric owner of the lead mines, is brutally murdered; what is the connection? And what do either have to do with the sundial in Ockle churchyard and the collection of monuments on Wengler's island known locally as the White Cathedral? Sholto McKay and Brogar Finn of the Pan-European Mining Company—in pursuit of a potentially valuable mineral from the Strontian mines—begin their own investigations, unaware their discoveries will tear more than one life apart.
