Recently widowed Rebecca McKenzie, a successful Vancouver businesswoman, returns to small-town Hope River after an absence of 30 years to attend her mother's funeral.

She expects her visit home to be short, but then she discovers the diaries written by her mother, a British war bride with a young baby who came to Canada to join a husband she scarcely knew.
Rebecca (and the reader) find her heart wrung by her mother's story.
Meanwhile, a young girl has gone missing, and the suspicions of the townspeople fall on Rebecca's handsome, charming brother Jimmy.
Before long, violence threatens and Rebecca must put aside some long-held grievances to protect Jimmy and find the real killer.
