Synopsis
The death of the clan patriarch has thrown the tiny Shetland Islands community of Whale s Reef into turmoil. Everyone assumed MacGregor Tulloch s heir to be his grand-nephew David, a local favorite, but when it is discovered that MacGregor left no will, David s grasping cousin Hardy submits his own claim to the inheritance, an estate that controls most of the island s land. And while Hardy doesn t enjoy much popular support, he has the backing of a shadowy group of North Sea oil investors. The courts have frozen the estate s assets while the competing claims are investigated, leaving many of the residents in financial limbo. The future of the island and its traditional way of life hangs in the balance.
