It's only when he dies that the world discovers Joss Moody, famous trumpeter, was really a woman. His widow flees to Scotland to escape the press and the furious disbelief of her adopted son who plans a biography, ghost-written by a scheming journalist. There follows a journey of discovery as those close to Joss try to unravel the past and to reassess their own feelings towards the man they thought they knew. A remarkable story.
