Automne 1978, nord de la Californie. C'est l'ouverture de la chasse sur les deux cent cinquante hectares du ranch de Goat Mountain où un garçon de onze ans, son père, son grand-père et un ami de la famille se retrouvent comme chaque année pour chasser. À leur arrivée, les quatre hommes aperçoivent au loin un braconnier qu'ils observent à travers la lunette de leur fusil. Le père invite son fils à tenir l'arme et à venir regarder. Et l'irréparable se produit. De cet instant figé découle l'éternité : les instincts primitifs se mesurent aux conséquences à vie, les croyances universelles se heurtent aux résonances des tragédies.

When he goes to the bank to close out his account, Ryan meets the lovely customer service rep Amanda Seward, who has a few issues of her own. And that's just the first unexpected encounter on a 2000-mile trek through the scenic American West.

Donna Bevan-Lee had a tough childhood. When her father was feeling playful, he roped her by the foot like a rodeo calf, yanking her to the ground every time the rope connected. In darker moods, he did far worse, his brutality excused by a complicit church. The abuse she suffered had profound and lasting consequences.
