In a remote forest of northern Vermont, artist Katelyn Cross takes five women on a wilderness canoe trip where they hope to come up with ideas for saving their dying town. When the river turns wild, the women face the challenge of a lifetime and find that staying alive means saving themselves while being open to help from an unlikely source.

In this story seven women of different ages navigate the stages of a woman's life. Of course there's also Katelyn's secret. A way she gets in touch with herself and her world when no one's around to bear witness.
