and wisdom the Pacific Northwest enclave of Owl Island and
its many unforgettable inhabitants. Widow Phoebe Allen has

a successful business supplying nets to the local fishermen,
and now enjoys the amourous attentions of a longtime friend.
When Phoebe learns that her old boyfriend Whitney Traynor
has purchased a house neaarby, she must confront
long-suppressed feelings for her charismatic first love, now
a high-profile indie film director. For years Phoebe has
concealed truths from her daughter and may now be forced to
divulge them. As the past rushes toward to present like an
inevitable tide, Phoebe must also confront the early loss of
her mother, whose own mysteries are beginning to surface.
Along the way, Phoebe discovers the life-transforming
benefits of opening one's heart.
