Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Fry, Rosalie K. (illustrator). Hardcover. Fiona McConville is a child of the Western Isles whose family left the fishing life and their home on the small islet of Ron Mor, when Fiona was six, for the Scottish mainland. But city life doesn't suit Fiona so at age ten she is sent back to her beloved Isles to live with her grandparents. There she learns more about her mother's strange ways with the seals and sea birds; she hears stories of the selkies - mythological creatures, half-seal and half-human; and she wonders about her baby brother Jamie, who disappeared during the island evacuation but whom fishermen claim to have seen. Fiona determines to find Jamie and strikes up a friendship with her older cousin Rory to enlist his help. When her grandparents are suddenly threatened with eviction, Fiona and Rory put their plans into action. Secret of the Ron Mor Skerry is a magical story of the power of place and family history, interwoven with Scottish folklore. Fry's novel was the basis for John Sayles's classic film The Secret of Roan Inish and is back in print now for the first time in decades.
