Feeling like one of society's misfits, Enya has always struggled to conform to people's expectations of her, and as a teenager, the sudden revelation of her adoption does little to improve her self-confidence. When she moves with her parents to a Tudor house, the timbers of which are from a ship of that era, having an innate sensitivity and an uncanny affinity for water, she finds herself accosted by a series of alarming dreams and visions. Tristan enters her life as a beacon of hope, but even he can't protect Enya from her demons as she tries her best to fit into a world where the tide always seems to be against her. As her troubles escalate, she takes the plunge by heeding a calling to move to the ocean, where she embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Drawing inspiration from the sea, her love of painting evolves into a magical process, enhancing her self-acceptance through her creativity. Yet the ceaseless tides of the ocean remind us that change is inevitable. As summer's light fades, giving way to winter's shadow, will the magic ensue or dissipate into a trail of dust?
