The House of Gregory in the Scottish Highlands was built by the ancient family Grioghar. Generations have come and gone, leaving only their imprint on the stone edifice that stands as a memorial to them. It remains protected as a refuge for descendants of the family and a testimony that some things can last forever. Twenty-six year-old Tia Randall is penniless and friendless in New York City after a very public fraud trial finds her husband guilty on many counts. Having no support from her parents, who have fled the country to escape her shameful ordeal, Tia finds a temporary haven in the home of old friends. There, she stands nervously at a crossroads, not knowing where to turn, until her long-lost uncle invites her to Scotland to help him restore the ancient House of Gregory. Although she finds the conditions there austere and damp, her reception by the elderly residents is warm and welcoming. Ever more aware of the centuries of human history that have transpired within the walls of her new home, Tia finds purpose and for the first time in her life, experiences unconditional love and the freedom to pursue her own desires and talents.
