Each one is unique feelings stitched into rows, memories into patterns… It is here that Rebecca Moray comes to research a book on Irish knitting. With her daughter, Rowan, in tow, she hopes to lose herself into the history of the island and to forget her own haunting past. Before long, the warm embrace of the townsfolk wraps Rebecca and Rowan in a world of friendship, laughter, and love… And it is here that Rowan finds Sean Morahan, a cantankerous old fisherman, who tries to scare her off but whom she befriends instead. But when Rebecca meets the old man, she recognizes in his eyes a look that speaks of a horror not unlike her own. And when present storms threaten to resurrect old ones, Sean and Rebecca find themselves on a collision course with Rowan between them each buffeted by waves of regret and recrimination. Only by facing headfirst into the winds will they find the faith to forgive without forgetting, and reach the shore
