This historical saga is set in a Scottish fishing village in the 1830's and reflects the living conditions and the morals of the ordinary fisher folk of that time. Belle is brought to live in the fishing community by her new husband Jimmie Watt. The villagers resent her as a newcomer and when Jimmie leaves for the Arctic on a whaling ship, she becomes increasingly isolated. She embarks on a tempestuous affair with Lachlan, the Laird's son, but when Jimmie returns she struggles with her feelings for him and for Lachlan.
