Maggie Tillman has everything-- a prestigious career, a Manhattan apartment, a wealthy boyfriend, and a finance mogul father who has just been arrested for orchestrating a Ponzi scheme. Threatened by the wrath of a thousand jilted investors, she must flee the country and go into hiding. In a hasty decision she will come to regret, she boards a plane to her mother's native Scotland and holes up in the tiny cottage left behind by deceased, eccentric Aunt Clara. Assets frozen, the New York golden child is at the mercy of a few rural neighbors, Aunt Clara's daily journal, the bitter Scottish winter, and a farmer's son with a secret of his own. And when the barren cottage begins to rattle in the silence, Maggie has to wonder if she isn't alone. The girl with everything is about to learn how little she ever had, and that home isn't where you live, but how.
