And before that child there were three sisters. Those sisters had a brother. His name was Icarus. Britain 163 BC On a small island just off the south coast, three sisters are determined to survive against nature's unmerciful odds, but their brother is mad, everyone thinks they are strange and old voices cry on the wind.
