Leaving the grime of Victorian Edinburgh behind her, Rose McQuinn makes a long-anticipated journey to visit her sister Emily who still lives in their childhood home on Orkney.  But on those far-flung isles  Rose does not find the peace and relaxation she anticipates; instead, events take on an unexpected and sinister twist.

The calm pleasure of Rose's holiday is shattered when a body is discovered during an archaeological dig.  Far from being that of a 13^th century princess, as the archaelogists had hoped, it becomes clear it's of a local woman, long presumed drowned but in fact brutally murdered.

Rose is in a dilemma as she realises that she probably knows the identity of the murdered but to reveal it, she will destroy forever the happiness of those closest to her.
