The Great War is over, and the inhabitants of Raumsey Island struggle to regain their livelihood. Seventeen-year-old Annie Reid is a spirited, ambitious girl, determined not to end up a herring gutter or go into service.
Annie befriends a young schoolteacher, Alexander Garcia, who promises to help her further her education but, after tragedy strikes, Annie pursues a nursing career amidst the political complexity of Glasgow.
Garcia dreams of a return to his Spanish roots, but Spain is also in political turmoil.
Annie's love for the teacher remains through the years, but will love overcome the barriers and prejudice of race, religion, beliefs and distance?
