Description - A Pistol in Greenyards by Mollie Hunter
In 1854 the tenants of Greenyards, in the Scottish Highlands, are brutally evicted from their homes and the land sold for sheep grazing.
To defend his family Connal Ross draws a pistol on the local Sheriff-Officer ... a crime punishable by death. Things can only get worse!
Forced into hiding, Connal and his sister, Katrine, try to keep ahead of the authorities, while trying to save other members of their family. Will they ever be able to start a new life, and escape to freedom?
Connal tells of the hardships suffered by his family and neighbours, how they plotted a rebellion in which the children played a vital role, and which unwittingly jeopardized their whole community.
A brilliant historical tale full of suspense and excitement.
