Married at sixteen, Mary Gerritse has a husband and children but remains restless within the life others have defined for her. When she is offered work carrying mail along the dangerous Oregon coast, the route gives her adventure, income and a sense of capability that domestic duty alone has not supplied.
Based on a true story, the novel explores the cost of pursuing a calling in a marriage and community unprepared for female independence. Mary’s faith must connect courage with responsibility as storms, isolation and family need test whether freedom can be shared rather than seized.
