| Synopsis
|
"Franklin Starlight had long settled into a quiet and predictable life
working his remote farm. But his contemplative existence is turned
upside down by the sudden arrival of Emmy, a woman who has committed a
desperate act so she and her child can escape a harrowing life of
violence. After Emmy has a run-in with the law, Starlight agrees to
take in her and her daughter to help them get back on their feet. Over
time, he introduces them to the land and patiently teaches them the
skills that have allowed him not only to survive but to find communion
with the world, and, gradually, this accidental family changes
Starlight and Emmy in ways they never imagined. But Emmy's abusive ex
isn't content to just let her go. He wants revenge and is hunting her
down."Jacket flap.
