Malcolm

Malcolm

by George MacDonald

Malcolm, a young man raised in a remote Scottish fishing village, has never known his parents. He lives with his grandfather, content with his simple life. When the local marquis and his daughter arrive at the nearby grand estate, long unoccupied, their presence awakens curiosity about Malcolm's origins. As events unfold, Malcolm is drawn into the lives of the wealthy family, uncovering secrets about his past and finding himself entangled in a web of love, intrigue, and social complexities. The narrative explores themes of identity, family, and the yearning for belonging, set against the backdrop of the Scottish highlands.
