What would you do for someone you love? Would you lie? Would you leave? Would you kill?As the police chief of a small Massachusetts town that has been home to generations of his Scottish clan, Cameron MacDonald is bound to the town's residents by blood and honour. Yet when his cousin Jamie arrives at the police station with the body of his wife and the confession that he's killed her, Cam immediately places him under arrest. The situation isn't as clear to Cam's wife, Allie. While she is devoted to Cam, she finds herself siding against him, seduced by the picture Jamie paints of a man so in love with a woman that he'd do anything for her even taking her life.
