With a 1st in Mechanical Engineering, Asa has turned her back on Scotland for a successful career in Calgary. Leaving her friends to the prosaic life of Orkney, an undefined incident at Birsay with Roddy has appeared to sever her wish to ever return. Her close friends, Rosie and Julietta, have sent Cameron to tempt her back for at least to visit home. When Asa does recall Cameron, she is contemptuous of him and it looks as if he has failed. However, surprisingly, Asa finds she has offered him dinner before he leaves for Orkney.
At the restaurant, Asa's is in a quandary with herself because of work, news from home and why the date with Cameron. Her boss, Austin, with whom she has recently finished a stormy relationship, and a colleague, Kinga, interrupts the dinner. Through both Kinga's insight of Cameron and his dealing with Austin, Asa finds herself warming Cameron but in the end she feels he in being opportunistic.
Then, a few months later on a stop over visit to Orkney, Asa visits with her family and friends. She ignores past and present truths as she toughens up to contain her self-image. Asa, although floored by the revelation of a past abuse, feels she is intact. To move on for good there is still the island to revisit and in selecting Cameron, the centre of her abject past, as her allotted guide she take one last hard-edged look at what she is rejecting in Orkney.
