The picturesque Highland village, with its mist-shrouded mountains and tranquil loch, holds both warm memories and painful reminders of absences that leave a void in the tight-knit community.

When Ruaridh Balfour's estranged brother Ross unexpectedly returns after fifteen years away, his arrival stirs up long-buried village secrets and complicated emotions. Meanwhile, Marcie's ancestral home across the loch stands as a stark reminder of past tragedies.

As Marcie navigates her conflicting feelings, a young stranger arrives in the village hiding troubles of her own. When unexpected danger threatens their peaceful haven, the community must come together to protect everything they hold dear.
