Oxford philosopher Dr. Thomas Stewart is found dead high upon a cliff overlooking Borgarnes, Iceland. Behind him lies a cave, an empty chest, and, for Borgarnes police chief Bjorn Karlsson, a lot of unanswered questions. Why was Dr. Stewart up there? How did he die? Did he find something up among the hills, and, if so, where is it now? And, most important, who was with him? The answers that slowly unravel are both surprising and fascinating, involving Dr. Stewart's beautiful and intelligent daughter Sophia, a Canadian hermit, a local Icelandic philosopher and the mysteries of ancient Greece.



For the Beauty of the Gloaming is a spellbinding literary novel that delves into such issues as forgiveness, grief, and gratitude, while exploring the relationship between father and daughter; the intricate connections between the good, the true, and the beautiful; the unique joy and intimacy of the collegiate friendships of our youth; and the rippling effects of love and death across the decades.

Andrew Ross

Dr Andrew T. Ross was a former operations research analyst with the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) of the Australian Government Department of Defence. He is also a political scientist and military historian, and a Visiting Fellow at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Canberra.

He was the author of many studies published by DSTO, and since that time (with Dr Robert Hall) has completed numerous other studies written under contract for DSTO and UNSW. Much of the latter involved Ross in building complex computerised databases for his analysis of insurgency warfare campaigns involving Australia.

Ross was the major contributor to the 2015 Cambridge University Press publication The search for tactical success in Vietnam: An analysis of Australian Task Force Combat Operations (other authors were Robert Hall and Amy Griffin).
