Summary The Shetland Islands, 1854. Great Britain is at war with Russia. The British Admiralty requires a lighthouse at the Shetland Islands so that the British can sail north of Norway and into Russian waters. But Chief Engineer David Stevenson says it is impossible to build on the island of Muckle Flugga. The steep rocky island lies in treacherous waters with massive waves and frequent storms - where the Atlantic Ocean meets the North Sea. But the lighthouse must be ready within six months.
