Once again Rosamunde Pilcher's screen adaptation takes the viewers of this sumptuous miniseries on an entrancing journey of love, betrayal, mystery and unfolding family drama.
When the tranquil rural life of Scotland's Strathcroy is disturbed, five people are forced to risk everything they have to restore peace to their little community, unaware of the true details of the tragedy that lies buried in the past of the Balmerino and Aird families. Only when voluntary exile Pandora returns for the September ball, is light finally shed on the hidden events of twenty years ago.
A star-studded cast, consisting of Emmy Award-nominee Michael York (HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST), Golden Globe-winner Jacqueline Bisset (DANCING ON THE EDGE), Edward Fox (OLIVER TWIST, GHANDI), Mariel Hemingway (LAW & ORDER, MANHATTAN), Golden Globe-nominee Virginia McKenna (AGATHA CHRISTIE'S MARPLE, SLIDING DOORS) and Jenny Agutter (Marvel's AVENGERS franchise, THE INVISIBLES) apply all their skills to bringing Pilcher's characters to vivid life.
