After the death of his grandson, BEN, in a sailboat accident, WYND DAVIES, a retired, successful lawyer, exiled himself into a dark hole of pain, anguish and guilt. Over the last two years, he has struggled to find his way back to the happiness and the family he has lost. He keeps the sailboat, covered and visible, moored to his dock; penance he tells himself. His wife, MADELYN, strong, determined, and patient, through chance meetings in town, mandatory (she insists) celebrations of birthdays and anniversaries, and more private occasions of warmth and quiet remembrance, has slowly, over the years, nurtured and encouraged Wynd's recovery. Their daughter, CHRIS, damaged and uncertain, flees back to college. Still fragile and haunted, she runs through her neighborhood as fast and far as it takes to suppress the memories of her son's death, and the anger she holds for her father.

A current of memories flows through the lives of these characters, informing, attacking, and sustaining their run through the rapids of joy, fear, dread, failure, anguish, grief, and loss, and finally to an unexpected closure.…
