Ailsa was born in Scotland but left if when she was seven after her mother fled their house after her father had gone missing. Over the years she has had no contact from her father and has had a fraught relationship with her mother and her new husband/partner.
With the death of her mother she finds herself back in the Highlands in the house that was once her own with her half sister Carrie who she barely knows. She finds the home, called The Manse, to be full of mystery both of her own history and that of her mother and father's relationship.
What will she learn of her father's disappearance, what will she do with the half ownership of The Manse and what of her nearest neighbour?
This is a mystery full of promise and dark menace in equal measure.
