Courting The Selkie - When the Mythical Meets The Real (Paperback)

Seamus, a young teacher working on the northern coast of Scotland, believes that the mythical and magical creatures called selkies, who can shape-shift between human and seal, actually exist. For years he has longed to meet a selkie woman, and now he has the chance ... or does he? The beautiful young woman who has suddenly appeared in town certainly seems to fit the bill in his mind; but the hints she keeps dropping simultaneously bolster and dash the possibility. The problem is that she is only in town for a few days, and Seamus has only a short time to discover her secret and convince her to stay. A novella with unexpected depth and turns, 'Courting The Selkie' is at once mysterious and humorous, exploring the multifarious facets of human relationships and love.
