Here Burns My Candle written Liz Curtis Higgs is amazing. It takes place in 18th century Scotland during the Jacobite Rebellion. The Kerr family has many secrets. Lady Marjory is the matron of the family. She has two sons Donald and Andrew who are married. Donald is married to Elizabeth. Donald says he loves his wife but his string of affairs says differently. Elizabeth worships the moon due to the religion of auld. Elizabeth also comes from the highlands where they are more loyal to the Jacobite cause. So when Bonny Prince Charlie starts his rebellion the Kerr family finds themselves rebelling against the king.
A turn in events causes so much heartache for the Kerr family.
