Adam Weir, Lord Hermiston, is the most feared hanging judge in Scotland; his sensitive son Archie cannot bear him. After Archie publicly denounces the hanging of Duncan Jopp, his father banishes him to the family estate on the lonely moors, where he meets and falls in love with Christina Elliott, and where the arrival of the plausible Frank Innes threatens everything.
