When a mysterious old gentleman declares his life-long love for
Marion Belle Pond at her funeral, her daughter, Sonia Harrison
Jones, realizes there is a lot about her life that she didn't know
before. The old man's words inspire her to embark on a journey to
rediscover her mother through the people she knew and loved. This
true story touches on Percy Pond, the author's grandfather and
celebrated frontier photographer who documented the Klondike Gold
Rush, the founding of Juneau, and the culture of the native tribes
in Alaska. It also introduces Kay Harrison, the author's
charismatic father, who was the Managing Director of Hollywood's
Technicolor Films in London, Paris, and Rome. Set against against
the backdrop of pre-war Japan, the early years of the territory of
Alaska, and the drama of World War II, this unique saga shows us
history as it plays out in the life of one family. It explores the
unpredictability and profound ironies of life, the effect of
heart-rending choices with their far-reaching consequences, and the
transforming, empowering nature of love and forgiveness.
