Cry to the Moon

Though life on the Micklemoor Estate in the Scottish Highlands is always tough, it is now under threat. The estate is not paying and is up for sale, with the jobs of Alastair McNeill and his assistant keeper, lan Benton, at risk. Their lives are made even more difficult by the arrival of a wildcat.The wildcat must contend with the weather and her natural enemies as well as the animosity of Alastair and lan, but she finds a friend in Alastair's twenty-year-old daughter, Sheina, who watches secretly over her and christens her Hexa. Rob Vincent, who inherits the next door farm and turns it into a wildlife sanctuary -- which does not endear him to the two keepers -- works with Sheina to protect Hexa. When they rescue one of her injured kittens and attempt to tame it, the kitten -- and the secret of Rob and Sheina's friendship -- must be kept from Sheina's father.
