The Green Rushes

--- first published 1953

"The wild geese went away that morning and never came again, and with them went the luck of the Corrohans."

Lynn Jeffries already knew the superstition about the Corrohans of Ardclunny when she came to take up her dilapidated heritage. Whatever the reason for the bad luck which hung over the place, the girl determined to restore its fortunes. But she too was a Corrohan and it was not long before bad luck touched her on the shoulder. Her projects at Ardclunny were ill-starred and, even when she fell deeply in love, it seemed her love could lead only along a blind alley.

But must an old superstition hold good forever? Lynn, last of the Corrohans to return to Ardclunny, believed that one day the tide must turn.
