About This Book

Shona does not want to move to Winnipeg, Canada,but at 12 years-old she has little choice. Determined never to forget her home community of Moodiesburn near Glasgow, Scotland, she starts visiting all her favourite places—including Ballayn Castle with its hand in the stone.
Before she is fully aware of what is happening, she and her cousin Davey are drawn back in time to 1567 when Ballayn is being enlarged, political intrigue is rife, and a terrible murder is about to be committed.
Unable to return to 1967, Shona and Davey find themselves caught in the past. Will they make it back to the present in time for Shona to go to Canada? Or will they be trapped forever beneath the hand in the stone?
