Dispatched by his employer to a remote Scottish estate in order to investigate the purchase of an hotel, Scott gets a hostile reception from the management, but a warm welcome from the locals, and a very warm welcome indeed from Iona Macvie, the minister's daughter. Here, he discovers a small, idyllic community, but one also in revolt, at the mercy of remote corporate landlords, the life blood of its youth being inexorably displaced by a vast blanket of commercial forestry. There's something sinister stalking the hills too - an old ghost from legend maybe, but if that's all it is, then why does the head keeper have the cut of an ex special forces type, and why does he carry a revolver?
An unwitting pawn in a game of power and faceless corporate greed, there seems little Scott can do - but he's underestimating the siren call of the Singing Loch, to say nothing of the sheer incompetence of his adversaries.
