The story of two Scottish immigrant families struggling against the odds of poverty and depression in Calgary. Clare Dunlop, a gifted student, is just seventeen when she gives birth to her first child, a boy who is deaf. Clare's husband is in jail. As the boy grows under the watchful eye of his great-great aunt, he develops an affinity for water and for the silent world of fishes.
