Produktinformationen zu „The Stones of Ailsa Craig (ePub)“

Confucius once said, "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves." Confucius was wrong.

A widower at just fifty years old, one lost, lonely, and increasingly obsessed man seemingly finds salvation in the ancient Scottish sport of curling, until it unexpectedly takes him down a much different and darker path. A path through present-day Belfast, Maine; 1880s Scotland; and to the remote, volcanic island of Ailsa Craig, home to the finest curling stone granite in the world and former home to tens of thousands of marauding brown rats.

The Stones of Ailsa Craig is a work of historical fiction, set in present-day Belfast, Maine and 1880s Scotland, particularly the 60-million-year-old island of Ailsa Craig. Rich in history, The Stones of Ailsa Craig explores themes of loss, loneliness, obsession, and vengeance, while toggling between two distinct locales and time periods. It is a mystery which should appeal not only to those who curl, but also to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.

Autoren-Porträt von David S. Florig

David S. Florig is a member of the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance as well as a member and past-president of the Pine Tree Curling Club in Portland, Maine. The Stones of Ailsa Craig is his debut novel and is an homage to Belfast, Maine; the glorious Maine coast; and the ancient Scottish sport of curling.David grew up and lived in South Jersey before retiring to Maine. Adopted by Charles and Marjorie Florig, he has seen a single picture of his birth mother. Subconsciously, that picture may have inspired this story.For years,David practiced law in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Following his legal career, he was the Executive Director of two nonprofits - Court Appointed Special Advocates of Burlington County (New Jersey) and the West Philadelphia Alliance for Children ("WePAC"). WePAC recruited and trained volunteers to open shuttered elementary school libraries in Philadelphia, and for his work on behalf of Philadelphia's children, he was honored as one of the inaugural GameChangers by KYW1060 Newsradio in celebration of Black History Month.David lives in Maine with his wife of thirty-five years, Nancy, and their ill-mannered rescue dog, Molly Malone.
