The Hidden Fires is an intimate and evocative journey into the heart of the Cairngorms, the wild and rugged mountain range in the Scottish Highlands. Guided by the poetic writings of Nan Shepherd, author Merryn Glover embarks on a pilgrimage through these ancient landscapes, tracing the footsteps of her literary muse. With a keen eye for detail and a deep reverence for nature, Glover invites readers to experience the breathtaking vistas, the ever-shifting play of light and shadow, and the profound sense of solitude that permeates these untamed peaks and valleys. This is a book that celebrates the profound connection between the human spirit and the natural world, revealing the hidden fires that burn within both.

Merryn Glover is a writer and storyteller with a passion for the great outdoors. Her work has been featured in various publications, and she has spent years exploring the remote corners of Scotland's wilderness areas. In The Hidden Fires, she draws upon her intimate knowledge of the Cairngorms, as well as her deep appreciation for the writings of Nan Shepherd, to craft a lyrical and immersive narrative that will resonate with nature lovers and armchair travelers alike.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
