Liz Swanson is a loving wife and mother. Her life isn’t quite what she’d imagined, but she considers herself lucky. She has a good husband, beautiful children, and fulfillment outside of her home through volunteer work.
On some days she doesn’t even notice the dull ache in her heart. While she’s preparing for the family’s summer kickoff at Lake George, the ache disappears and her sudden happiness is mistaken for anticipation of their weekend. However, as the family heads north, there are clouds on the horizon that have nothing to do with the weather.

A careful observer might see the signs that something is wrong, but only Liz’s daughter, who’s found some hidden journals, has any idea. By the end of the weekend, there will be no escaping the truth or its painful buried secrets, and it will take all of their strength to get through the storm together.
