Erst als sie das verfallene Haus ihres Großvaters renoviert und eintaucht in die Vergangenheit, lernt Rosie mal schmerzhaft, mal heiter mehr über sich selbst und findet Freundschaft, Familie und Liebe.

She has not experienced passion since she was young. When, over the course of a few weeks, the props of her life fall away one after another, it is to passion that she turns - not in her own life, but in the fragmentary account of a scandalous affair in 19th century rural Ireland, between the wife of a big Anglo-Irish landlord, and her servant. And so Kathleen is drawn back to Ireland, to see whether she can find out more...
