Full Mackintosh

August 1714: British slave raid, for boys, in Aberdeen, Scotland A cunning merchantman captured young women, at market. Sold from an auction block, in Inverness, an Irish rabbi's daughter journeyed to a foreign, wild world completely unlike her verdant homeland. In a rugged castle, in the midst of Badenoch, she met her master, the Laird of the Chattan. Garth Mackintosh, laird, father of two daughters, and widower, purchased Amalie to save her from slavery. His daughters needed instruction, from an educated woman, while awaiting opportunity to return her to her family. He was ill prepared for the effect the auburn haired lass would have on all their lives.

Writing began as soon as Deb Kemper could read. Poetry became an instrument to express, often confused feelings, growing up. It proved helpful in adulthood, whether tackling a novel that reads epic, without being so, or the many devotionals and short stories she has contributed to various books over the years. Deb's books range from contemporary Christian fiction, Mallory Ridge, to historical fantasy to a gluten free cookbook.
