Music in the Dark

A lifetime ago Jamesina Ross wrote songs about the land and the kin who had lived and worked on it for generations. She dreamed of sharing stories about the life and land she loved. But her music was no match for the violence her friends and family faced as they were forcibly removed from their homes in what became known as the Highland Clearances. She builds a new life, of sorts, in a tenement flat in Rutherglen. She tries not to think about all that she's lost. But when she takes in a lodger, he tries to convince her that if she would only dare to remember the past, she might have the chance of a future.
