At the center of it all is Nora Johanson, a determined and hopeful woman whose dreams of love and belonging are shattered when she arrives to find her fiancé, Hans Larson, missing. Instead of the life she envisioned, Nora finds herself grappling with heartbreak, disappointment, and the unexpected role of comforting those in grief—a minister and his wife.
