After a long absence, Clarissa Wheatley returns to the family cottage on the shore of Lake Superior. Beside its turbulent and enchanted waters, memories, mythology, hoodlums, and an old Finnish woman, Nordri, invoke a chain reaction in her very being. After finding the courage to read her mother's journal, the important questions in her life begin to change. The journal weaves together the story of a woman trying to make sense of her house-bound life and the tragic story of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald, which sank on November 10, 1975, killing all onboard.
