Crowdie Farm liegt an der schroffen Steilküste Schottlands; dort sind Bette und Nina Crowdie aufgewachsen, zwischen Kühen, Hühnern und der rauen See. Nahegestanden haben sie sich nie. Zu verschieden sind die beiden Schwestern, zu groß der Altersunterschied von zehn Jahren. Nun lebt Bette ihr ganz eigenes Leben in London, fernab der Familie, während für Nina die Farm ihr Ein und Alles ist. Als plötzlich der Vater stirbt und die Schwestern unerwartet den Hof gemeinsam erben, treffen sie wieder aufeinander. Bald erfahren sie von den enormen Schulden, die ihr Vater vor ihnen verheimlicht hat. Widerstrebend willigt Bette ein, ihrer Schwester bei der Rettung von Crowdie Farm zu helfen. Doch das bedeutet, dass sie einen Weg finden müssen, zusammenzuarbeiten, und Bette nicht länger verdrängen kann, warum – oder wegen wem – sie vor all den Jahren weggegangen ist. Die Entdeckung eines seit Jahrzehnten vergessenen Apfelgartens mit uralten, seltenen Cidersorten auf ihrem Land ist der einzige Hoffnungsschimmer. Er bleibt die letzte Möglichkeit, die Farm zu retten – und die Beziehung der Schwestern wieder zu kitten.
