Synopsis Tragedy strikes a Pacific Northwest native community when Jimmy Hill mysteriously vanishes at sea. His sister Lisamarie sets off alone in search of him. Her voyage takes her through the Douglas Channel towards Monkey Beach, a shore famous for its Sasquatch sightings. There she deals with Haisla and Heiltsuk lore, the haunting spirituality of the setting, and her own private loss.
