Jean Abbott, happily married for twenty years, is devastated when husband Russ confesses that he's having an affair. Seeking time and space to rebuild her life she flees to tiny Scottish island Eilean Dubh, on the pretext of tracing an ancestor who emigrated from there. He's the mysterious Uisdean, whose letters to his lost lover Morag were found by Jean in family papers. Jean meets Darroch Mac an Righ, a television actor who is the Island's reluctant Laird...reluctant because his great-grandfather gave up the title, telling the Islanders they should rule themselves. Every eldest Mac an Righ male since has tried to get rid of the lairdship yoke, but the Islanders want Darroch as their chief. He calls it "that bloody Laird business," but accepts the responsibility. Discovering Jean's glorious singing voice, Darroch invites her to join him and friends Jamie and Mairi MacDonald in performing lovely Island music, which he teaches her as their friendship develops in cozy afternoons in his cottage. Jean falls in love with the beautiful Dark Island as she becomes immersed in its music and legends, weeds a haunted graveyard, becomes assistant to a gourmet chef, and learns the tragic story
