Résumé
Esa Withrod is a young woman struggling over recent events in her personal life-a failed first relationship and resulting pregnancy-as well as the legacy of her desolate upbringing. Eccentric and enigmatic, Esa's childhood has prepared her to deal with the world with endurance and resilience, but not with joy. She remains "mystified by kindness" and the friendship offered to her by her employer, Merle, a cartographer, and his partner, Daniel.
The only bright spot in Esa's childhood was the three months she spent in a house by the sea with her grandmother in the Maritimes when she was seven years old. Searching for that safe haven she knew as a child, Esa returns to her grandmother's house to find that it is not possible to go back. Through a spring and summer of traumatic events in what has been her family's homestead, she discovers the love of family, friendship, and the best of what people in a small community have to offer each other in times of difficulty.
