●AFTER FOUR HARROWING YEARS ON THE WESTERN Front, Tom Sherbourne returns to Australia and takes a job as the lighthouse keeper on Janus Rock, nearly half a day’s journey from the coast. To this isolated island, where the supply boat comes once a season, Tom brings a young, bold, and loving wife, Isabel. Years later, after two miscarriages and one stillbirth, the grieving Isabel hears a baby’s cries on the wind. A boat has washed up onshore carrying a dead man and a living baby. ●Tom, who keeps meticulous records and whose moral principles have withstood a horrific war, wants to report the man and infant immediately. But Isabel insists the baby is a “gift from God,” and against Tom’s judgment, they claim her as their own and name her Lucy. When she is two, Tom and Isabel return to the mainland and are reminded that there are other people in the world. Their choice has devastated one of them. ●一個出於「善良」的決定，卻撕裂了許多人的一生！ ●什麼是對？什麼是錯？有時兩者的界線，竟是如此難以分辨…… ●當命運不安地騷動，我所能為妳做的，就是說一個美麗的謊…… ●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……
