Summary

In the fall of 1939, Grace Baker's three brothers, sharp and proud in their uniforms, board Canadian ships headed for a faraway war. Grace stays behind, tending to the homefront and the general store that helps keep her small Nova Scotian community running. Three years later, the fighting rages on and rumours swirl about 'wolf packs' of German U-Boats lurking in the deep waters along the shores of East Jeddore, a stone's throw from Grace's window. One day a handsome stranger ventures into the store. He claims to be a trapper, and as Grace gets to know him, she becomes enamoured by his gentle smile and thoughtful ways. But after several weeks, she discovers that Rudi, her mysterious visitor, is not the lonely outsider he appears to be. When a shocking truth about her family forces Grace to question everything she has believed, she realises that she and Rudi have more in common than she had thought.
