'St. Ronan's Well' is a tragicomic tale of two brothers in love with the same woman. Walter Scott's trademark dramatic tension is palpable in this novel, but it is unique in the fact that it is his only novel set during the 19th century. The story revolves around a spa in a small Scottish town that is home to a large cast of highly comedic and compelling characters. Scott expertly builds suspense over the course of the novel as each character has something to hide in this satirical village. Throughout the story, dark secrets are revealed and blackmail escalates to violent confrontation as both brothers battle for the love of Clara. 'St. Ronan's Well' features some of Scott's best characters and beautifully vivid descriptions of the Scottish countryside and its satirical style is an interesting departure from his typical historical fiction. This novel should be read by fans of Scott's work but its luxurious setting and fusion of irony and high drama make it the perfect book for fans of 'The White Lotus' or 'Nine Perfect Strangers'.-
