Would you risk losing everything for love?
In 1936, eighteen-year-old Esther Muncie marries Scottish landowner Fraser McAllister, twenty-four years her senior.
By 1946, Esther is the mother of two children, wife to an absent husband and is running the estate of Kirkmore. With her Scottish labourers still helping to rebuild Europe with the British Army, and desperately needing workers, Esther takes delivery of twenty German prisoners of war.
Amongst these 'enemy aliens' the residents of Kirkmore find friends. They find craftsmen, farmers, ordinary men and boys.
And Esther McAllister finds a German academic by the name of Michael Petersen.
