    Hugh Bawn, modern Scottish hero and legendary social reformer, lies dying in one of the high-rise tower blocks he helped establish. His grandson Jamie comes home to watch over him, and it is Jamie who tells the story of their family, of three generations of pride and delusion, of Catholic faith and the end of the old left.

    Jamie Bawn returns to Scotland to be with his grandfather, the reformer Hugh Bawn, now living out his last days on the eighteenth floor of a high-rise. The Young man is faced with the story of a country he thought he had left behind; and now he listens to the voices of ghosts, and what they say about his own life.
