1931, Cornwall. Lynette Nicholls lost her brother exactly a year ago in a tragic air training accident. When she visits the coastal town where it happened, she begins to doubt everything she's been told about the incident and becomes determined to uncover the truth.

Her investigation takes her deep into the community, where she meets Geordie Sargent, the leader of the miners' dispute. When sparks fly between them, and Lynette is drawn into his fight, she risks losing everything.

Lynette knows she must choose between her love for Geordie and justice for her brother's death. But, as her life becomes further entangled in the dangerous secrets of Pencarrack Moor, she starts to wonder if she still has the luxury of making that choice . . .
