About the book
Beginning as a means of escaping a failing marriage, wild swimming became a transformative journey of healing and discovery. This is also a treasure chest of history and myth, local folklore and archaeological clues, giving us tantalising glimpses of Pictish and Viking men and women, those people lost to history, whose long-hidden secrets are sometimes yielded up by the land and sea.
