Publisher's Synopsis
At the height of the Great Depression in 1932, two strangers arrive on Maine's Jigsaw Island. Artist Ben Turner has fled the desperation of New York City to wait out the hard times and find inspiration. Muriel Peters, along with her son Andrew, arrive on Jigsaw Island to seek a new start. For each, Jigsaw Island will be a place of new beginnings and discoveries. In the midst of the worst economic disaster of the twentieth century, the newcomers will have to establish new ties in a beautiful, but alien landscape.
