With her young daughter in tow, Mhairi Mc Phail flees her crumbling marriage in New York and accepts an assignment on the remote Hebridean island of Fascaray, where her grandfather was born.
There, she will set up a museum in honor of the island's celebrated poet, Grigor Mc Watt, and write his biography.
As Mhairi struggles to adapt to island life and put her troubles behind her, she begins to unearth the astonishing secret history of the poet, who has long been regarded by many as the custodian of Fascaray's--and Scotland's--soul.
Hame builds an intricate world around the life and work of Mc Watt, weaving the poet's own writing, extracts from Mhairi's journal, and tales of Fascaray itself into an extraordinary story of identity, love, belonging and the universal quest for home.
