After an unexpected death, our narrator embarks on a house-buying excursion. One of the houses on the market is in Shaws Head, a quiet village in North Carolina where her husband had grown up. Her husband's family, neighbors and best friends live there still. She picks up parts of his life as she adjusts to living without him.
