Newly arrived in a cold, isolated northern land to keep house for her brother, who has just been left by his wife, a woman watches misfortune spread: hysterical cattle, a dead ewe and lamb, a dog's phantom pregnancy, potato blight. She feels the locals' mistrust of outsiders settling on her. However devotedly she cares for her brother, he too starts to sicken.
