Built for the new age, the house stood boldly upright on the edge of the ocean withstanding the harsh blasts of a cruel century, nurturing and protecting the family within, watchful of hearts swollen or broken, dreams delivered and dashed. It had absorbed the tears and echoed the laughter. A sweeping saga of one family through a momentous century. Different people, divergent lives and distinctive stories. Bound together by the place they called home. But one of them is missing, lost to the world. An unknown grandchild, born to a son who went to war and never came back. As the years pass, through wars and emigration, social transformation and generational change, the search continues. And the questions remain the same: who is he? Where is he? Will he ever come home?

John MacKay was born in Glasgow in 1965. His childhood summers were spent at his grandmother's home on the Isle of Lewis. Home draws heavily on the influences of that background. MacKay is a journalist and newsreader for STV and presents the STV News at Six and Scotland Tonight. His previous novel, The Road Dance has been made into a movie starring, Morven Christie, Hermione Corfield and Mark Gatiss. It is due to release this year.
