Margaret Westlie is a native of Halifax with close family ties to Prince Edward Island, where her family immigrated from the Isle of Skye, Scotland, in 1803. She is a graduate of the Victoria General Hospital School of Nursing and of Dalhousie University in Halifax. She discovered her talent for writing almost by accident, while completing a degree in church music, and immediately switched her degree plan to English, receiving a Master's Degree in English with a Professional Writing Emphasis in Prose and Poetry from the University of Missouri. She played violin with the Philarmonia of Kansas City and has sung with a number of choral groups, including the Confederation Centre Singers and Akkord in Charlottetown. She is also an accomplished pencil portraitist. She makes her home in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, where her novels are set.
Annie, heroine of An Irregular Marriage, is back, now in her new home in Prince Edward Island. But is she a healer or is she a witch?
Her husband is dead, drowned on the crossing from Scotland to Prince Edward Island. Her most treasured possession is a gazing ball, a gift from her mentor Belle—a woman believed to be a nature-worshipping witch. How will Annie become part of her new community in Canada? Will her skills as a healer and a midwife outweigh the reputation that has followed her from Skye? And who is the mysterious Mr. Wells, who has travelled with her from Scotland and whom only Annie can see?
The Settlers' Stories by Margaret A. Westlie continue with this new chapter in the stories of the early Scottish communities of Prince Edward Island. This life-affirming story of an independent woman before her time will touch your heart.
