"...But Rachel's heart and hand went to handsome, black-eyed Josi Evans, a proud tenant farmer who, in both social status and age, was decidedly her junior...With the wild and beautiful landscape as a backdrop, the Evans family—along with their friends, foes, neighbors, and servants—struggle to understand and come to terms with personal pain and shame in the midst of an increasingly urgent and demanding national crisis—the onset of World War I."
