A Cross of Lilies A Scottish Tale of Return and Iron Rules
A dramatic fragment follows Ruth Gordon in London and Scotland where a daughter abandons home life to become an actress. Her Puritan father clings to the Bible as a symbol of restraint, while a mysterious gift prompts a painful homecoming and a grave secret behind her departure. The scene shifts between London glamour and a Scottish house as old ties, memory, and deathbed orders collide in a single stark revelation.
