In the unsettled borderlands between Scotland and England in 1706, Undine, the half naiad, uses all the help she can get, even the people her potions bring to her.

The settings and potions are important only in that they help reveal the true nature and the emotional, mental, and physical actions of the people.

Michael Kent, a twenty-first century actor/director and a victim of a potion, arrives in the eighteen century just in time to help Undine at a crucial time. Neither of their lives are ever the same again.

They struggle to outmaneuver the English colonel Lord Bridgewater and his cohorts who fan the flames of the conflict between Scotland and England so they can get richer and richer and have more power. Amid all the clandestine doings and cruel actions, a precious, protective love wiggles its way into the mix.

A well-written, subtle humor runs through the story that gives a delightful touch as the plot unfolds. Also, a twist in Undine’s back story is special.

Gwyn Cready’s delightful writing style makes most enjoyable reading.
