Misunderstandings with the other women in the village have left her isolated from their close-knit circle. And then there is Joseph, the soft-spoken fisherman who stirred up her heart all those years ago but does everything he can to avoid her now. But when Joseph finds a little boy washed up on Skerry's windswept beach, barely alive, his arrival unearths the villagers' buried secrets. As the snow cuts Skerry off from the rest of the world, Dorothy agrees to look after the child - and finds herself thrown together again with Joseph, after years of keeping their distance...
