It’s the summer of 1969.
From the moment Jane Quinn steps barefoot onto the main stage at Island Folk Festival, her golden hair glinting, her voice soaring into the summer dusk, a star is born - and so is a passionate love story.
Jane’s band hits the road with Jesse Reid, the musician whose bright blue eyes are setting hearts alight everywhere. And as the summer streaks by in a haze of crowds, wild nights and magenta sunsets, Jane is pulled into the orbit of Jesse’s star.
But Jesse’s rise could mean Jane’s fall. And when she discovers a dark secret beneath his music, she writes her heartache into the album that could make or break her: Songs in Ursa Major.
