Once, on a winter's night many years ago, after a
heavy snow, the devil passed through the Scottish
fishing town of Coldhaven, leaving a trail of dark
hoofprints across the streets and roofs of the
sleeping town.
Michael Gardiner has lived in Coldhaven all
his life, but still feels like an outsider, a blow-in.
Now living in self-imposed exile out on the point,
Michael feels at one with the sea-birds and the
changing light of this ancient landscape
more distant than ever from the dark, closed
community of the villagers. But that is about
to change.
When
husband is the devil and then kills herself and her
two young sons, a terrible chain of events begins.
Michael's infatuation with the fourteen-year-old
Hazel takes him on a journey towards a denned
fate, where he is forced to face his present and
then, finally, his past. Having confronted his own
demons he must return, walking in penance and
penitence, to be reborn into a world where he was
always a stranger.
Written with the exquisite clarity and power of
a folktale, The Devil's Footprints is the story of a
man trying to come to terms with a suspended
life, and the fear, guilt and unbearable grief that
mark it. Revealing what lies beneath the surface
of the everyday world, John Burnside has written
a novel of mysterious and terrifying beauty
primal and thrilling as cloven hooves in the snow. |
