Secrets of the Highlander by Janet Chapman is the sixth book of the Highlander series. Previous books dealt with the experiences of highland warriors transported from eleventh and thirteenth century Scotland to modern day Maine. The Scots have blended in and become an important part of modern times during the thirty-five years spent in the modern times. The series includes romance, magic, fantasy.

In this book Megan MacKeage one of the seven daughters of Greylen MacKeage runs into Jack Stone, the father of the baby she is carrying. The last time Megan saw Jack they were in Alaska and he was calling himself Wayne Ferris. At that time when told of her pregnancy, he said he wanted nothing to do with Meagan or the baby and sent her back to Maine.

Jack is now the town police chief, returned to claim Megan’s heart in the midst of solving a number of mysteries. I’ll leave it to the reader to decide how many. I read the book and I am not quite sure. I think I would have preferred fewer story lines and a little more depth. There are many books that could be written about these Scots and their descendents, I look forward to the next one, ( )
