During
the 1930's depression in Scotland, Kezzie and Lucy are luckier than
many around them. Following their father's death in a mining accident
they have, with their grandfather's help, managed to stay together and
live on the little work Grandfather and Kezzie have been able to find.
But their luck turns very sour when Lucy goes missing and is taken up by an adoption agency who send her to Canada. Without hesitation Kezzie sets off to find her little sister but will she be able to save her?
