Need help identifying Novel about magical left-handed people












0















A book I read as a child (early 1990s) involved the protagonist visiting relatives in another country (potentially Ireland/Scotland).



Very vague memories include:




  • Chess was played at some point

  • The phrase "crawry fisted" is used as an old Irish term for left-handed people

  • The female protagonist is told left-handed people are magical
