Mother-Daughter Team Up to Publish First Novel
Duo's first book set against the backdrop of real-life Scottish castle hotel
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Tina Rosenberg's debut novel, "Glenapp Castle - A Scottish Intrigue," published by iUniverse, brings the folklore and beauty of Scotland's coastline to life in the midst of a couple's struggle to discover the dark secrets haunting their newly purchased castle.
When Eva and Andrew Campbell buy the fire-ravaged Victorian castle and its thirty-acre estate on a whim with plans to create a world-class hotel-by-the-sea, they dismiss warnings of ghostly spirits inhabiting their new home. It soon becomes clear there is indeed something mysterious within the walls of Glenapp Castle, something they cannot explain but which holds the key to age-old rivalries and long-held secrets ... and murder.
"Tina Rosenberg has intermingled past and present in the fog-shrouded setting of a Scottish, grand family estate, thick with mystery and intrigue," said bestselling New York Times author Ridley Pearson. "What I most admire about 'Glenapp Castle' is the strong, sure voice and the relationships. It's as if The Shell Seekers married Sherlock Holmes; wonderful, atmospheric entertainment. Enter 'Glenapp Castle' at your peril: once inside you can't leave its pages."
Rosenberg's novel was inspired by a visit to Scotland's Glenapp Castle, now a Relais & Chateaux hotel, during a trip to the country's coastline. The author felt an instant connection to the castle and its thirty-acre estate, and with permission of the current owners, decided to make it the setting for her first novel. She and her daughter, Brooke Rosenberg Marvin, returned a year later to conduct research, interviews and to take photographs for the twenty-five pen and ink illustrations.
"Glenapp Castle - A Scottish Intrigue" is a tale for readers searching for a thrilling, mysterious and romantic read. Thematically, the underpinning of "Glenapp Castle" addresses the universal truth of the connectedness of all things and of the dire consequences when disregarded.
