Epiphanies and Robberies Chapter 2: Candlemas

Andrew, Michael and Anne-Marie meet up by chance after attending an event in the village Hub. They go on to share an impromptu meal in Kirkgate’s Lowther Arms and start to learn about each other’s circumstances, passions and struggles. The meal is a success and at the end of the evening, Andrew tells them about two art robberies that took place in the region in 2003 and 2013.He wonders if a pattern might be emerging, here in Nithsdale. Could 2023 see history repeating itself?
