Maggie and Jeremiah were the best of friends, growing up on the same gravel road in the same sleepy town. As kids, they thought they knew exactly how their lives would go but as they near their high school graduations, they realize life often has plans of its own. Is it possible for promises to be kept as they seem to be pulled in different directions? Maggie has always aimed to please her parents and walked down the path her parents paved for her. Now she wants to pursue her own dreams against her parent's wishes, if she dares. Jeremiah is the son of the town drunk and seems fated to follow his father's footsteps. A college offer can change all that.

It is 1897. Eighteen-year-old Daniel Robertshaw has always been an outsider. Naive and childlike, he is shunned by his neighbours in the Yorkshire fishing port of Staithes. When Daniel discovers the dead body of a young girl washed up on the rocks, he is immediately assumed guilty of killing her. As the city of York prepares for a murder trial, more questions arise. Who is the young girl? Her body has not been claimed. Will Daniel be able to prove his innocence? Fossil-collecting barrister, James Cairn, knows Daniel and is willing to represent him in court. He faces a struggle to prove Daniel's innocence, but first he must find the real killer.

Based on a true eighteenth century murder story.
