Haas is an eighteen-year-old girl raised by a single father in Missouri. Growing up in an isolated town composed of mostly German immigrant families she is unsure of the life that has been set for her by her community. When her father dies suddenly she is left to bury him alone. In order to meet the terms of his will, she must bring him to the town where he was born along the Mississippi River: a community battling both the stresses of climate and economy. There, she meets Will, a young man whose artistic soul is tethered to the harsh reality of life.
