    <body><![CDATA[The story is set in the 1980s Northern Ontario, cottage country. The narration is an alternating POV between Ann, a painter who has cottaged there throughout her childhood; Billy, a native whom she loved as a young girl, and her present day husband, Richard, who also had a working relationship with Billy. <br/><br/>So yes, the story revolves around a love triangle. It is beautifully written (Bemrose is also a poet) and effectively uses flashbacks throughout to bring the reader to the present day. My nitpick with the novel is that it takes too long to get moving. But it's a good read with interesting and real characters.<br/>]]></body>
