In the middle of a perilous drought in the Northwest, an arsonist
begins setting fires all around. It gives Zoe Penney nightmares
about her home-seated right next to tinder-dry woods-rising up in
explosions of fire, as well as haunting dreams of a little boy deep
in the forest. Winter brings the longed-for rains but also a cancer
diagnosis for Zoe's husband, Jay, which plunges the family into
disbelief and fear. The children lean in close to their parents,
can't stop touching them. As Jay's treatment begins, nature lets
loose with strange and startling encounters, while a shadowy figure
hovers about the corners of the house. First, Zoe's fear turns to
anger: How can I love you if I am to lose you? How can I live in
joy when the sky is falling? But she gradually learns that it's
possible to love anything, even terrible things-if you can love
them for what they are teaching you.
