Duncan Campbell, a young man from the Highlands, is haunted by the legend of a cursed rider and driven by a desire to find his fortune. He embarks on a journey that leads him to a woman whose fate is intertwined with his own. However, their love faces challenges, not only from her unwelcoming family but also from powerful forces that manipulate time and space. Through trials and tribulations, Duncan must confront the legacy of the curse and discover the true meaning of love, fate, and his own identity.
