Set in the 1970s, The Blue Sky Door follows Stewart, who deserts his girlfriend, leaves his job anddeparts for the Highlands of Scotland. Here, he meets and connects with a mysterious youngwoman, Melanie, who lives on a mountainside. His arrival is resisted by some of the villagers and he struggles for acceptance. As his bond withMelanie grows, she becomes more resentful of anything that takes him away from her. While Stewartis open about his past, Melanie reveals very little about her own background - and the arrival ofStewart' s ex-girlfriend adds fuel to the fire. Are the odds against them just too overwhelming? The mountains symbolically represent the struggles Stewart faces, and the truths that he mustaccept, as well as providing a stunning backdrop to this novel about humanity, love and morality.
George Alston began life in Lancashire, moved to Kent then migrated to Scotland. As an avid mountaineer, it is no surprise that the outdoor world features prominently in his work. He now lives in Keswick, Cumbria and makes a living from painting and writing articles for magazines.
