Laura Lee White-Hawk, 28 and without kin or close relationships,
has taken leave from her job with the Ohio Department of Natural
Resources. Now she pursues her dream of becoming a nature writer
while living in a dilapidated house on a wooded peninsula of the
Lake Erie shore. The property is the bequest of the woman who
rescued Laura in her youth from loveless foster care and reared her
to be self-sufficient and courageous in the face of challenges.
Life in her new home tests her resources and resolve. An unexpected
challenge enters Laura's life when David, an eleven-year-old boy
fleeing a home life of abuse and neglect, beguiles her into a
collaboration that is both offbeat and clandestine. Laura
sympathizes with David's fierce opposition to becoming a ward of
social services, and perhaps unwisely and definitely illegally
harbors the boy. Soon David wins a place in Laura's heart as cook,
companion, co-worker, student, and inspiration. She realizes he
fills her life with special meaning. The secret comes out when
David's past embroils him in a frightening and dangerous situation.
Can Laura's new acquaintances and David's native courage and
intelligence see them through the tough times?
