Cone-Gatherers

<p>In the shadow of a war that rages through Europe brothers Calum and Neil work to gather pine cones in the grounds of a Scottish estate. When Calum releases two mutilated rabbits from a snare he comes face to face with Duror the gamekeeper. In retaliation in the depths of the wood Duror lays a trap for the cone-gatherers.</p><p>Neil prophesises that forces of evil will encroach upon the harmony of their lives. It is a prophesy that comes true when Duror commits an act so brutal it destroys all sense of humanity in the once thriving wood. Powerful and unforgettable Robin Jenkins' masterpiece is a haunting story of love and violence and an investigation of class-conflict war and envy.</p>
