War rages but sometimes the enemy is closer than you think.
Aged 14, Mhairi is forced into adulthood. Evicted from her family home in rural Scotland, separated from her parents, she must find her own way in life. As she fights for survival in a city of strangers, she finds companionship in the most unlikely of places. And she finds love.
But there is war, the world is a terrible place, and the cost of standing up for what you believe in can be high. Mhairi has made an enemy and he is powerful. Women like her have no place in his world and he will do whatever it takes to suppress her.
When the unthinkable happens she loses everything again, including her freedom.
She had the best of friends and the greatest love. Now she has nothing. Will she
have the strength to carry out the fight of her life?
