"Islands of Silence is the story of the young Alice Marquand, who in the summer of 1914 has just graduated from college with a degree in archaeology. He has been hired by the lord of a remote country estate in the Scottish Highlands to survey the ancient Stone Age brochs that lie on his property. Once there Alec comes upon a small island called Eilean Tosdach - the Island of Silence. What Alec discovers on that island changes him forever.

And just as Alex makes his amazing find, he is shipped off to war...a war he does not want to fight, but one in which he ends up as a medic aboard a ship ready to storm the beaches of Gallipoli."--BOOK JACKET.

Work Description

Islands of Silence is the story of the young Alec Marquand, who in the summer of 1914 has just graduated from college with a degree in archaeology. He has been hired by the lord of a remote country estate in the Scottish Highlands to survey the ancient Stone Age brochs that lie on his property.

Once there Alec comes upon a small island which is called Eilean Tosdach--the Island of Silence. What Alec discovers on that island changes him forever. And just as Alec makes his amazing find, he is shipped off to war . . . a war he does not want to fight, but one in which he ends up as a medic aboard a ship ready to storm the beaches of Gallipoli.
