The Edwards, the Ames, the Epsteins, the Currans and the Templetons
- five families bound together by the decades-old tradition of
spending their August vacation at the idyllic Mount Haven Inn in
New Hampshire. Despite living separate, disparate lives, the summer
ritual of reconnecting remains an important yearly fixture for the
families, with the inn and its tranquil surroundings offering a
welcome safe haven and respite from their struggles - a place to
draw comfort from their shared past and memories. But strained
relationships, heartache, loss and devastating secrets all come to
a head one climactic summer - a summer that will change their lives
forever . . .
Can they start again, or will they lose one another forever? David
and Judith's fragile marriage is threatened by the sudden death of
their beloved thirteen-year-old daughter, Melanie. As they struggle
to cope with their loss, they confront bewildering challenges. But
instead of turning to each other, they find comfort with others.
David is drawn to Nancy, a colleague and single mother, and a
survivor of her own personal tragedy, while Judith grows close to
Jeffrey, a recently widowed physician whom she meets through her
volunteer work at a thrift shop, itself the scene of multiple daily
dramas. As their grief drives them further apart, does their future
lie together 'after Melanie', or are they destined to lose one
another for ever?
