When you're hiding in a web of secrets, who can you trust to help you escape?
Young widow Rose moves to a remote Highland town to care for her egocentric brother Simon during his regular bouts of illness. Only Rose and a few specialists know that the illness started when Simon became a werewolf.
All Rose and Simon need to do is keep a low profile while a cure is found. But no one will let them hide. First Emmeline of the Kirkglen Women's Guild turns up asking awkward questions, then a woman called Sky arrives saying she knows what Simon is, and how Rose's husband died, and then finally Rob, a local musician who seems to have an excessive dislike of the Guild.
Yet Rose is uncertain who to trust, especially when sinister things start happening, and torn between mourning her husband and a growing attraction to Rob. How can she become close to anyone without telling them the truth about Simon?
Most then there's Sky, never appearing at the right moment, and not quite human, Sky knows everything Rose is hiding, including the things Rose is hiding from herself. Yet Sky seems vulnerable, conflicted and grieving too, with her own secret she can't quite explain - or perhaps won't explain. Is she the friend Rose needs, or another problem?
Sky fears the Kirkglen Guild as much as Rob dislikes it, and when Rose inadvertently breaks one of their rules, her fear of discovery becomes a fear of something older and darker.
What secrets is Kirkglen itself hiding? And how far will the Guild go to root Rose, Simon and Sky from the community? Does it simply want them to leave - or does it want to utterly destroy them?
