St Brigid's is a windswept island off the west coast of Ireland,

home to a community which lives in the past.

Rose is a beautiful young woman, loved by all.

Emer is her disfigured twin. She is consumed by jealousy, and a

fiercely protective love for her son.

Brigid, named after the island's saint, arrives from America,

in search of a miracle.

Because St Brigid's is no ordinary island.

The islanders' hostility quickly melts when Brigid befriends the twins. But little do they realise that her single-minded passion will endanger everything they hold dear
