Eighteen-year-old Muriel Jorgensen lives on one side of Crabapple
Creek. Her family's closest friends, the Normans, live on the
other. For as long as Muriel can remember, the families lives have
been intertwined, connected by the crossing stones that span the
water. But now that Frank Norman - who Muriel is just beginning to
think might be more than a friend - has enlisted to fight in World
War I and her brother, Ollie, has lied about his age to join him,
the future is uncertain. As Muriel tends to things at home with the
help of Frank's sister, Emma, she becomes more and more fascinated
by the women's suffrage movement, but she is surrounded by people
who advise her to keep her opinions to herself. How can she find a
way to care for those she loves while still remaining true to who
she is?
