After her husband' death in an accident, Callie has two things" the island house she inherited from her aunt and a fierce determination to raise her infant daughter on Caines Island.

And now as a hurricane threatens her livelihood when it wreaks havoc on the island, Calli must heal the rift with her mother and overcome the obstacles faced by women in 1970s society while remaining true to herself. Along the way, she comes to understand how history, both family and national, affects those close to her.
