On a chilly spring day, Grace Campbell sets out from the old grey house of Kirklands against her nurse’s advice and meets Geordie, a shepherd boy who believes the only way into the Bible lies through the spelling-book. Their friendship grows amid Scots dialect, kirk and hillside, as Grace teaches and Geordie keeps a solemn promise.
