Conall MacInnes is the laird of his clan, who has the additional responsibility of protecting the Druids in his area. Conall had wanted to be one of them, but being the only son, he had to lead his people. His kidnapped sister is always on his mind, and when he helps Glenna get away from her father, he learns she knows of his sister. Once he takes her to his keep, he needs to enact his revenge against Glenna’s father for his treachery. Will Conall fail the three hundred year old prophecy and will his love for Glenna be the biggest interference……or not.
Glenna MacNeil needs to know what purpose she has in life, after being secluded in a filthy keep. She is told by Conall’s sister, who has been brought there against her will, of a dark man who will help her. Glenna eagerly jumps at the chance to escape but is not sure of what will happen to her later. What Glenna learns of her ability to control the magic from other Druids surprises her. They want to train her to be prepared for the coming prophecy, of which she will be apart.
Highland Mist is the first in the Druid Glen series, and this book is loaded with murder, magic, deceit and love. The villain starts right off doing his dirt work of deceiving and murdering of innocents. When you think all is lost, in rides Conall MacInnes, and let’s not forget Glenna’s unstable abilities, that complements the both of them. I enjoyed many of the secondary characters that added to the plot, and their points of views.
Ms. Grant has spun a very realistic tale of Scottish lore, and the magic of the Druids only adds to it. I felt the spiders crawling, in the dark cave along with Glenna, and applauded her for the courage she showed, when it was needed most. My joy and surprise at the way this story ended was great, but the villain is still around to cause mischief ! Oh well, I am awaiting the next book in this series to see where the magic takes us.
