Disfigured and forgotten by the Falkland's War, Kristian Treharne embarks upon the more challenging campaign of renewing an old love affair - a mission fraught with more unexploded bombs and surprises than even his veteran instincts are able to anticipate. Meanwhile his sister, Charlotte Treharne, now an aspiring young lawyer, discovers a more sinister and violent secret lurking in the wailing winds that tear through the tragic memories of her mother's beloved home Ragged Cliffs. The past and present clash with each other in a maelstrom of punishment and revenge, while the uncompromising cliffs of the Gower Peninsula look on and choose their own destiny.
