Entre la India y Escocia, desde los años 30 hasta nuestros días, se desarrolla la desgarradora historia de una mujer encerrada, rechazada por la sociedad y olvidada por su familia. La novela explora el peso de las convenciones sociales y la complejidad de los lazos familiares, desde el amor hasta la traición. Tras sesenta años de encierro en el asilo de Cauldstone en Edimburgo, Esme Lennox se prepara para reencontrarse con el mundo exterior, guiada por su sobrina nieta, Iris, quien desconocía su existencia. A medida que Iris investiga, descubre los terribles dramas de una vida robada y las razones detrás del internamiento de Esme a los dieciséis años.
