從慘烈的戰場歸來，湯姆成為一座孤島上的燈塔看守人，與年輕的妻子伊莎貝一起過著與世隔絕的日子。伊莎貝對島上的生活一切都很滿意，除了遲遲生不出孩子這點之外。
某天早晨，一艘小船被沖上岸，上面載著一個已經斷了氣的男人，還有一個哭泣的嬰兒。湯姆原本打算依規定通報有關單位，伊莎貝卻堅持他們應該收養這名嬰兒。既然他們身處在距離法律很遙遠的地方，那麼只要他們不說，就沒有人會知道這件事。
但他們卻不知道，這個決定，將會為許多人帶來毀滅性的後果……

The crying persisted. The door of the ligthhouse clanged in the distance, and Tom's tall frame appeared on the gallery as he scanned the island with the binoculars. 'Izzy!' he yelled, 'a boat!' He vanished and re-emerged at ground level. 'It's a boat all right,' Tom declared. 'And – oh cripes! There's a bloke, but –' The figure was motionless, yet the cries still rang out. He hoisted out a woollen bundle: a woman's soft lavender cardigan wrapped around a tiny, screaming infant.

Tom Sherbourne, released from the horrors of the First World War, is now a lighthouse keeper, cocooned on a remote island with his young wife Izzy, who is content in everything but her failure to have a child.

One April morning, a boat washes ashore carrying a dead man - and a crying baby. Safe from the real world, Tom and Izzy break the rules and follow their hearts.

It is a decision with devastating consequences.
