Title : The Lewis Man - Peter May - book

• Summary

Breaking with his past, Fin Macleod returns to his native Lewis. The tragic death of his young son destroyed his marriage, and he left the police force. The windswept moorland, the fury of the ocean crashing against the shore, the Gaelic voices of his ancestors... he believes he can find meaning in these childhood places.

No sooner has Fin arrived than the body of a young man is discovered, miraculously preserved by the bog. DNA tests link the body to Tormod Macdonald, the father of Fin's childhood sweetheart, making the old man the prime suspect. But he can't defend himself, lost as he is in the fog of his Alzheimer's disease, so Fin goes to help him.

To the rhythm of the flashes that cross Tormod's senile mind, the past resurfaces, painful, dramatic, revealing the fate that Scottish society reserved for decades for orphaned or abandoned children that the Catholic Church sent to the Hebrides.
