Suppose I should mention 'Under the Skin' by Michael Faber, based entirely on/around the A9 between Dornoch and Inverness, an area I've got to know well over the past decade thanks to Greywether, teeming with chambered cairns and such .... probably the most dark, disturbing and thought provoking book I've read since Orwell's 1984. Better than James Smythe's 'The Machine', even. I'll never be able to drive the A9 again without thinking of Isserley.
