Moristoun

McSorely has had enough. His life has spiralled out of control and nothing has gone his way.

There seems to be only one option open to him, one last thing he can do to take control of his fate.

All hope is lost. But far away on the mysterious island of Moristoun, Buchan is charged with the task of dissuading McSorely from this drastic course of action.

Moristoun is where people like McSorely might end up, having exchanged one kind of hopelessness for another.

A glimpse of the 'life' he might be heading for might change McSorely's opinion of his own existence, but a glimpse of the entrancing Gail behind the bar in the pub and a hint about Moristoun's true nature could render all of Buchan's efforts to rehabilitate the despairing McSorely equally hopeless.
