In 1926, Jean-Michel Langelier travels from France to Alaska with his sister, Collette, hoping to escape the haunting memories of his wartime experiences. Meanwhile, Katherine Demarchis, a young widow finally free from an abusive marriage, accompanies her grandmother on a final journey to the Curry Hotel near Mount Denali. Neither expects to encounter the person they once loved, but their unexpected reunion awakens feelings and painful memories they thought were buried. As Jean-Michel struggles with terrifying nightmares and Katherine confronts the wounds of her past, they must decide whether faith, forgiveness, and renewed trust can restore the love they lost.
